Altrincham played host to an unforgettable weekend as The Brit Fest welcomed 30,000 festivalgoers - and broke a world record for the largest ever Hokey Cokey.
This four-day spectacular brought a succession of iconic acts to Ashley Hall Showground, with legends 10cc rounding off the weekend with an incredible set late on Sunday evening.
Other big names to grace the stage at the event were UB40 featuring Ali Campbell, Razorlight, 10cc, Midge Ure, Chesney Hawkes, Thompson Twins’ Tom Bailey, Blancmange, Hue & Cry, Cutting Crew, Go West, Incognito, The Fizz, Katrina and last-minute addition Musical Youth. Black Lace also led a world-record Hokey Cokey on Saturday afternoon.
Thursday night’s opening celebration saw Squeeze, Badly Drawn Boy and China Crisis kick off the weekend in style.
Festival Director Edward Prophet said: "This year was just very special - one we’ll remember forever. There was so much love on site.
"Music has this unique power to bring people together, to create joy, healing and connection - and we saw that in every performance, every singalong, and every smile across the weekend."
Altrincham businesses played a major part in the weekend, thanks to title partner ABC+ Warranty and The Con Club, Most Bakery, Sigiriya and Tipsy Tea.
In a change to the layout from last year's inaugural event, almost all the action took place in the main arena field.
Beyond the headline acts, the Busk Stops hosted emerging talent and creative performances across the site, as well as mini golf, fire walking and immersive workshops.
And The Brit Fest is definitely back for 2026, with the dates confirmed as July 2-5.
