Sausage & Cider Fest is a touring UK festival celebrating the best of sausage and cider flavours. The 2026 Milton Keynes stop promises a full day of live music, tribute acts, an eclectic range of craft ciders and sausages, plus stalls, activities and more

What’s Happening

  • Sausage variety: The festival features more than 20 different sausage flavours alongside other food vendors offering vegetarian, vegan and gluten-free options.

  • Live entertainment: Expect tribute acts and headline live music throughout the day. The schedule is released gradually; for example, a phase of the lineup has already been announced for this date.

  • Festival market & activities: The site hosts a market area featuring face-painting, festival merchandise, phone-charging stations, and other fun extras.

  • Food & drink rules: All food and drink is available for purchase on-site; outside food or drink is not permitted (except sealed water bottles or empty containers for refill). Cashless payments only.

  • Access & policy: Entry is by ticket only. Last entry is typically at 20:00. A no re-entry policy is in place (once you leave, you cannot return).

  • All ages welcome (with conditions): Under-18s are allowed but must be accompanied by an adult aged 21+. Ratio limit: one adult to a maximum of three under-18s. ID may be required.

  • Terrain & accessibility: The outdoor terrain is flat with no steps, but may be uneven in places. Disabled toilets available; separate queueing is not guaranteed.

 

Sausage and Cider Fest 2026 - Line up

Why Attend?

  • It’s a one-stop festival for food & drink lovers: sample a wide variety of artisan ciders and creative sausage flavours in a fun, festival atmosphere.

  • The blend of live music, tribute acts, and market stalls adds more than just eating and drinking — you get a full day out.

  • Suitable for groups, families (with conditions), and friends looking for something different in the summer calendar.

  • The “touring” nature of the festival means it has experience in staging events and consistently brings variety in vendors and entertainment across different UK cities.

 

Ticket Tiers

  • General admission tickets start from £19.50 (plus booking fees) according to the FAQ.

  • All standard tickets grant the same access and experience (entry time, food & drink stalls, entertainment) — the only difference is the price paid (early bird vs later).

  • VIP tickets are available at some events in the tour. For those events they include: dedicated queue jump, exclusive area, separate bar, better stage views, posh toilets.

  • Note: For the Milton Keynes event specifically I could not find a public listing confirming VIP ticket details — you may need to check the specific Milton Keynes ticket page closer to the date.

Parking & Transport

  • Central Milton Keynes has over 20,000 parking spaces across multi‑storey and surface car parks.

  • Typical city‑centre tariff: Standard bays ~ £1 for first 2 hours then ~50p per hour; Premium bays ~ £2.50 first hour then £2 per hour.

  • For the venue map for e.g. Campbell Park (used before by this event) the postcode is MK9 4AD.

  • There is mention in the festival FAQ that “All parking information for our events will be city specific. Please check the city you are coming to page and you will find parking information there.”

  • Public transport: The festival location is centrally placed within Milton Keynes, so access by bus (and walking/cycling) is feasible. E.g. the main station is Milton Keynes Central railway station which has links to bus routes.

Transport tip: If driving, arrive early to secure parking (some spaces may fill up for big events). If travelling by public transit, aim for the city centre bus routes and walk or take a short taxi from Milton Keynes Central Station.
