Alive at The Barn brings music back to Southwick in July

Alive at The Barn! Music Festival is listed for Friday, 24 July 2026, at The Barn Theatre in Southwick, with the venue address given as 24 Southwick Street, Southwick, BN42 4TE.

The Visit Brighton listing describes it as the return of Southwick’s annual Music Festival, built around a simple promise: two days, one barn and music intended to keep people moving. The currently visible event details confirm the date and venue, but do not list a start time, end time, ticket price or booking instructions.

For readers planning summer events around Brighton and the wider Southwick area, that makes this one to mark early while checking the official listing again closer to the date.

The confirmed date and venue

Alive at The Barn! Music Festival is currently shown on the Visit Brighton events listing for 24 July 2026. The venue is The Barn Theatre, 24 Southwick Street, Southwick, BN42 4TE, United Kingdom.

The location puts the festival in Southwick rather than central Brighton, but it sits within the local events orbit promoted through Visit Brighton. The source describes the event as Southwick’s annual music festival, signalling a community-rooted programme rather than a one-off touring concert.

The event title and short description both point to a lively music-led format. Beyond that, the listing available in the source does not name performers, stages, running order, food stalls or added activities.

What the festival listing currently says

The public description is short but direct: Alive at the Barn 2026 is back, with “two days” and “one barn” at the centre of the pitch. The phrasing suggests a compact festival setting focused around The Barn Theatre.

Because only 24 July 2026 is visible in the supplied event details, readers should treat that as the confirmed listed date for now. No second date is separately provided in the verified brief, despite the source description using the words “two days”.

Anyone comparing summer music options in the area may also want to watch other Brighton listings, including local Brighton music festival dates, where times and prices can also vary by listing.

Details still missing before you plan the day

The most useful planning details have not yet been supplied in the source text. There is no published start time or finish time in the verified listing, and no price is shown.

Booking or entry information is also not listed in the supplied source. That means readers should not assume whether the festival is ticketed, free-entry, pay-on-door or advance booking only.

The listing also does not give audience guidance. Based on the source, it is safest to describe the event as a local music festival for people interested in Southwick’s annual music event, rather than as a family event, late-night event or age-specific programme.

What to check before going

Before making firm plans for 24 July 2026, check the Visit Brighton event listing for the missing practical details: start time, finish time, ticket or entry arrangements, and any updated information about the wider programme.

The confirmed venue detail is The Barn Theatre, 24 Southwick Street, Southwick, BN42 4TE, United Kingdom.
