Event information

The New Sounds Festival 2026 is a live music event celebrating the creativity and talent of young musicians aged 13–25. Set in the beautiful Milton Court Concert Hall, this is more than just a performance… it’s a space where young artists come together to share what matters to them through music.

What to Expect

A carefully curated evening featuring a mix of live performances and recorded works, from original compositions to fresh interpretations of well-known songs. Every piece connects to this year’s theme: “What do you stand for?”

Expect a night that feels honest, expressive, and full of new voices. Produced by the Young Event Producers, this is a festival for young people, by young people.
