Set against the backdrop of Gilcombe Farm in Bath on 16 July 2027, this forthcoming concert features Show of Hands delivering their signature blend of traditional British instrumentation and indie pop. The mid-size venue will host the English folk-rock band, known for socially conscious lyrics, as they bring their established touring energy to a dedicated audience. Formed in 1985, the group continues to perform across the UK, drawing listeners with an atmospheric mix of acoustic roots and contemporary sensibilities. Ticket details are available via the event website.
Show of Hands is a new Jazz festival taking place at Gilcombe farm in Bruton over the late May bank holiday weekend in 2026 for 2,500 people.
It's a space for family and friends to enjoy and listen to up-and-coming Jazz music in the rolling Somerset hills.
Show of Hands prides itself on being fully independent, free of corporate sponsorship and mass-produced brands. We want to take the festival experience back to being about the people and the community. That's why we've created a unique chance for festival goers to have their say in the festival with an all-attendees vote. You can propose and change anything you like. It is your place to create. The festival will be full of revelry, hot air balloons, talks about doing things differently, and fun. Be a part of celebrating local independent festivals and join us.
The choice is yours. We begin with only one rule.
