Let the train take the strain.

Have a day out in Taunton visiting the great real ale pubs and dart in and out of the Fake Festival for some cracking tribute bands. Start off with breakfast in the Perkin Warbeck J D Wetherspoon pub for breakfast.

Pop into The Ale House and say hello to Fiona Johnson, our new Vice-Chair. See what the fuss is about in the Karsi. Craft beer and gin lounge Ninkasi specialises in selling on and off sales of craft beer sourced from local breweries and microbreweries, as well as nationwide and international beers. Checkout The Plough, a traditional treasure in Taunton.

Taunton Fake Festival 2024 is on Saturday 26th July 2025, 11:45AM-11:00PM. at Longrun Meadow, Longrun Lane, Taunton, TA1 5AU.

Bring your friends and party with us inside our famous giant marquee with large fast-serve licensed bar and outside entertainment, food traders and stalls!

Picture this: a summer's day with ya crew, beer in hand, singing and dancing to the roaring anthems of The Killers, the electrifying energy of Muse, timeless classics of Fleetwood Mac, gritty grunge of Nirvana, indie edge of Kasabian, and the fiery punk of Green Day. If that lights you up, join us as we make Taunton 2025 another legendary chapter in Fake Festival history! But grab your tix quick – you’ve sold-out every time! UPDATE [15 MAY]: due to unforeseen circumstances, our fabulous fake-band for BLINK-182 (Ultimate Blink-182) will now play instead of KASABIAN.

FAST SERVE LICENSED BAR - we run our own licensed bar inside the marquee, well-stocked with lager, cider, bitter, spirits, wines and soft drinks. The bar is large and fast-serving, we really take care of your drinks as we know how important they are to the experience.

DRINK TOKENS - tokens are available from the token desk to the side of the bar. Exchange tokens at the bar for 1 bar (alcoholic) drink or 2 soft drinks.
