Enjoy Milford on Sea: The Milford on Sea Music Festival is coming!

About the Milford on Sea Music Festival

As the village eagerly awaits the Milford on Sea Music Festival, which takes place on the village green from Friday 21st to Sunday 23rd July 2023, a festival clothing range has been launched and an announcement about the programme made.

This special free weekend will be headlined by John Illsley, the legendary Dire Straits bass guitarist, and there will be another 19 talented local music acts performing for our free entertainment.

There’ll also be a well-stocked and well-staffed bar, a range of wonderful local food trucks, and all other facilities you’d expect from a professional festival, including attention paid to sustainability and disabled access.

Music Festival Clothing Range

The tour style clothing range carries the colourful Milford on Sea Music Festival logo and includes Festival Hoodies, T-Shirts and a Tote Bag. Items can now be ordered, by clicking here. Please buy yours now to show your support with a comfortable piece of memorabilia!

Milford Music Festival Programme

The sustainably sourced paper Milford on Sea Music Festival Programme contains the full line up and timings of the band performances, and will be available in shops around the village.

These will cost just £3, so please buy a copy, as the sale of programmes make an important contribution to funding the Milford on Sea Music Festival.
