Thank You Call of the Wild 2026

Thank you COTW

Thank You!

Call of the Wild Festival has always been built on passion, passion for music, for community, and for creating a space where rock fans from across the UK and beyond can come together and feel at home. Every year, we are reminded that this festival is so much more than a weekend of live music. It’s a family gathering, a celebration of independence, and a testament to what can happen when a community stands behind something it believes in.

As we look back on another unforgettable year, we want to take a moment to recognise the people who make it all possible: you. Your energy, your loyalty, and your unwavering support are the heartbeat of Call of the Wild. Whether you’ve been with us from the beginning or joined us for the first time this year, you are part of the story we’re so proud to tell.

"Call of the Wild Festival would like to extend the heartfelt thanks from all four directors of Upstaged Limited to our incredible audience. Year after year, you choose to spend your time, energy, and passion with us, and it is your unwavering support that allows Call of the Wild Festival to continue growing while staying true to its roots. 

Your enthusiasm, camaraderie, and love of live music create the unique atmosphere that makes this event so special. We are immensely proud to be known as one of the UK's finest independent rock festivals, but it is you, the fans, friends, and members of our festival family who make Call of the Wild what it is. From the first band on Friday to the final encore on Sunday, your passion and spirit bring the festival to life.

On behalf of all four directors of Upstaged Limited, thank you for helping us make Call of the Wild Festival the best independent rock festival around. Your loyalty, encouragement, and belief in what we do mean more than words can express, and we cannot wait to welcome you back to do it all again. Rock on and we'll see you all next year!"
