WrdeUp Festival 2025

WrdeUp is a family-friendly Music Festival for the Highworth community and further afield. Come and Rock the Rec!

About:

Highworth's very own music Festival, WrdeUp is back for 2025! Expect the same great mix of music, family entertainment and excellent food and drink at Highworth's no. 1 town-wide community event.

At the end of 2023, Fandangos were pleased to purchase WrdeUp from WrdeUp Music Festival CIC, which started and ran the event for the past 10 years. Fandangos are incredibly excited to be taking over the reins of this key town-wide event for the people of Highworth and beyond. 

The first event was in 2013 and was originally organised as a celebration for the Highworth Junior Football Club after winning a regional award. Due to a clear demand for this sort of event for the town the event came back again in 2014, under the name of “Higworts”.
 
In 2015, the name “WrdeUp” was first used for the event and seemed to resonate with the audience, the majority of whom are all local Highworthians. “Wrde” was the first recorded name for the town in 1086, for a short 8 years before being renamed to “Wortha”.
