Country On The Coast 2027: British country music on Southsea's pier
This small festival in Southsea, the seaside district of Portsmouth on England's south coast, shines a light on independent country as it is made in the UK. Most of the bill comes from British acts at an early stage of their careers, with a handful of guests flying in from Nashville, Texas or mainland Europe. The event was set up by Hannah Roper, an award-winning country singer who hosts the Country Show on Express FM and has twice reached the finals of the British Country Music Association awards. Well over a hundred artists apply to play each year.
The 2027 edition runs over the weekend of 17 and 18 April and stays fully indoors, inside the Gaiety Bar on South Parade Pier, a room that looks straight out to sea. Expect a main stage, acoustic sets on a smaller second stage, line dancing sessions, stalls from independent makers and a food menu written for the weekend. The 2027 acts have not been named yet; announcements begin in January. Past editions brought in names such as Kezia Gill, Morganway, Gasoline & Matches and Two Ways Home, along with American performers Dusty Moats and Kirstie Kraus.
Doors open at noon on both days. On Saturday the music carries on until around 11 pm, while Sunday wraps up around 7:30 pm so people can get home. There is no dedicated car park, so plan on paid seafront parking or nearby streets. The bar and kitchen are open throughout, and under-18s need to come with an adult.
For Country On The Coast 2027, only the Early Bird weekend pass is on sale so far, through Ticket Tailor: £44 per adult and £11 per child, plus a 10% booking fee, and tickets cannot be refunded. To plan further, browse festivals in April 2027, festivals in the United Kingdom, or the americana and folk hubs.
