Join us on Sunday 7th June as we bring the heart of Old Town to life with the Wood Street Party, a vibrant community celebration and the final headline event of Old Town Festival 2026.

Inspired by the atmosphere and format of our much-loved September Street Food Festival, this free afternoon event will transform Wood Street into a pedestrianised celebration of local music, food, and togetherness.

  Pulse - Swindon’s mother-and-son duo playing floor fillers from across the decades.

  Horizon Line - The ultimate acoustic Rock duo playing classics from Fleetwood Mac to Tom Petty, from Petshop boys to Dire Straits

Whether you're popping by for lunch or staying for the full afternoon, the Wood Street Party is the perfect way to come together as a community and enjoy the very best Old Town has to offer.
