BerkoFest 2022

14 May 2022

BerkoFest is a boutique, family-friendly festival which celebrates the very best in local music, food and entertainment.

This year this festival is being held to coincide with the Platinum Jubilee celebrations’ bank holiday weekend and will be on Thursday 2 June from midday to 8pm. The event is being generously supported by Berkhamsted Town Council.

For its 10th anniversary year BerkoFest is back at its original location of Berkhamsted Cricket Club, which is a natural picturesque amphitheatre in the Chilterns, all helping to complete a lovely warm mid-summer vibe.

An exciting mixture of the very best of local musicians, including some very talented teenagers, will perform a range of musical genres, ranging from show tunes to harmony groups, chilled out rock to Irish dance, and indie to pop music. All of which will provide a veritable jukebox to entertain all ages.

Those booked to appear include Royal Opera singers Phillip Brown and Kathryn Jenkin; The Devine Family performing their own unique arrangements of Traditional Dance Music; Tik Tok and Instagram inspiration, Lex Gibbon, a local 17-year-old singer songwriter. BerkoFest favourite Shane Lamont and his house band will headline.

Moreover, there will also be a mouth-watering variety of delicious food stalls offering top quality produce catering for all tastes, and for liquid refreshment there will be a carefully selected range of beers and naturally sourced cocktails.

‘BerkoFest is all about the quality of local entertainment, and showcasing that at affordable prices.’ says BerkoFest founder Charlie Hussey. ‘It’s about loving our community, and some of the monies raised will be supporting local charities.’

Devoted to music, committed to local, with affordable prices – BerkoFest is the place to be on 2 June.
