International Beatleweek Festival 2026 in Port Sunlight – P.S. I Love You Part 2

After an unforgettable debut in 2025, International Beatleweek Festival is once again taking over the charming, quintessentially British village of Port Sunlight in 2026. Nestled on the Wirral peninsula, Port Sunlight holds a special place in Beatles history as home to Hulme Hall, the very stage where Ringo Starr made his first appearance as a Beatle in August 1962. In 2026, we’re bringing that magic back to life.

This year’s P.S. I Love You event transforms Port Sunlight into a mini festival within a festival:
• Two outdoor stages filling the village air with Beatles and 60s classics (Village Green & The Dell)
• Multiple indoor stages offering intimate performances and unique vibes
• Music echoing around the picturesque streets, gardens, and architecture all day long
• Local food vendors
• Vintage fair at the Church Hall, free entry and open to everyone

It’s the perfect blend of heritage, atmosphere and live music – an experience that truly captures the spirit of International Beatleweek. And to make it even easier to join the fun, IBW26 wristband holders will enjoy complimentary bus transport to and from Port Sunlight throughout the event.
