SandFest 2025

SANDFEST IS BACK - HEADLINED BY THE HOTTEST ACT IN DANCE MUSIC - SONNY FODERA

On Sunday 13th July 2025 Sandfest returns for its 8th instalment on the golden shores of the glamorous and internationally famous Sandbanks beach. Be among five thousand party people who gather to indulge in sand, sun, fun and seriously good music!

One of the most anticipated events in the social calendar, SandFest is a boutique beach festival like no other. In a short space of time this young event established itself as THE go-to event of the summer.

A large arena, with soft golden sand under foot, surrounded by glistening blue sea, plus stunning Dorset views such as Old Harry Rocks and a sprinkling of sizeable super-yachts make for a magnificent backdrop. To delight and refresh you there are a host of quality food vendors and fully licensed bars.

The SandFest stage consistently plays host to world class acts and DJs. It has been graced by Idris Elba, Chase & Status, Rudimental, Tinie Tempah, Craig David and more recently last year our headliner was Dizzee Rascal!
