Gig on the Green will be back in 2024 for the 13th music festival held in the heart of Yateley. It promises to be a spectacular weekend of fun, music and entertainment for all the family.
The festival will be held over two days on the weekend of Saturday 29th and Sunday 30th June 2024. Both days will be jam-packed with high energy music, dancing and fun, featuring a selection of the UK’s best tribute acts, interspersed with the very best local musical talent. Bring your own picnics, or enjoy meals, drinks and snacks from the many food outlets, bars and stalls. Bring your friends and family and join the party. We can’t wait! Can you?
We have another fantastic selection of tribute acts booked for 2024. Full details are on our Bands page.
Organised by Yateley Sports CIC and now in its 13th year, Gig on the Green has become a highlight of the Yateley social calendar, bringing together the local community in a real family and friends-oriented event where all profits go towards supporting the sports facilities being developed around Yateley United Football Club.
Yateley is located in the north east corner of Hampshire close to the M3 and A30.
Gig on the Green Yateley will be taking place on Yateley Green, in between Reading Road and Firgrove Road. The Ticket Entrance on the day will be via a Firgrove Road entrance, near to the Car Park.
There will be limited car parking provided on the adjacent playing field to Yateley Green, adjacent to Firgrove Lane. Please respect our neighbours by parking responsibly and leaving the site quietly. If you live in Yateley, why not walk down to the Green?
If you live a bit further afield, please try to use public transport where possible as parking will be limited.

Come down with all the family with your deck chairs to enjoy a sunny, summer weekend. If you’d like to make a picnic of it you are welcome to bring food and drink with you. If you’d prefer not to, we will have plenty of stalls and concession stands selling food, drinks and snacks on site on both days. There will even be Ice Cream Vans! Ticket holders can bring in alcoholic drinks for their own consumption until 8pm. After 8pm, alcohol MAY NOT be brought into the festival. This applies to both admissions and re-admissions.
