The headline act
BBC Radio 2 brings their biggest ever live music event outside London to City Park in Stirling this September, with the 2026 event hosting Chaka Khan, Simple Miles, and James Blunt amongst others.
How to attend
Tickets for the event are on sale now priced at £32 for Friday and then tickets are £63 for either Saturday or Sunday. This is a major ticketed event, so booking in advance is essential, especially for weekend slots.
What this means for newcomers
If you're settling in Scotland or the Central Belt, this is one of the flagship live-music events of the autumn calendar. Stirling is easily accessible by train from Edinburgh (1 hour) and Glasgow (45 minutes), or by car. City Park is a landmark venue, so accommodation and transport will be straightforward. The multi-day format means you can catch different acts across the weekend or drop in for a single night. As an expat or new resident, this event gives you a chance to experience a major British summer/autumn tradition and connect with locals who've come to celebrate.
