MK Weekender 2026

Milton Keynes came alive this weekend as MK Weekender transformed Campbell Park into a spectacular celebration of music, entertainment and unforgettable festival moments. Across three packed days, thousands of people came together to enjoy an incredible line-up, fantastic atmosphere and the very best of the city’s summer events calendar.

From the moment the gates opened, there was a real sense that something special was happening. Friday kicked things off with Ultravegas: The Next Chapter, bringing huge house anthems and festival energy to Campbell Park with Tall Paul and Seb Fontaine back to back and an incredible performance from Symphonic Ibiza. The party continued into Saturday with an incredible mix of music including DJ sets from Horizon Radio's Chris Gregg, eighties legend Martin Kemp and Radio One's Charlie Hedges plus a headline set from Scouting For Girls, while Sunday was RaverTots, giving families the chance to experience the fun of a rave together.

As the Official Media Partner, Horizon Radio was broadcasting live throughout the weekend, capturing the atmosphere, chatting to performers and festival-goers, and bringing listeners all the action from Campbell Park. From the big performances to the crowds enjoying themselves, it was a fantastic weekend for Milton Keynes.

And now you can relive the weekend! Scroll through our collection of photographs below and listen again to some of the interviews, highlights and sounds recorded by the Horizon Radio team during MK Weekender.

MK Weekender proved that Milton Keynes knows how to put on a party. Three days, one city, one unforgettable weekend. We can't wait to see what comes next!
