OMD! It’s an electric line-up for Chilfest 2023!

Chilfest is set to provide a summer fully-charged and loaded with retro legends.

In what is arguably our best ever line-up, 80s new wave band OMD will be topping the bill with their immense back catalogue of synth sensations.

From Enola Gay and Electricity to Locomotion and Sailing on the Seven Seas, Andy McLuskey and Paul Humphreys will make a welcome return to the Chilfest stage, after last wowing the crowds back in 2017.

Another Chilfest favourite, Thompson Twins’ Tom Bailey, also returns and is set to raise the tempo even more with songs like You Lift Me Up, Hold Me Now and Doctor Doctor.

The rest of the stellar line-up includes the soulful and flamboyant Leee John of Imagination, the mod squad themselves From The Jam, ska and reggae band The Dualers, Dodgy of 90s Brit Pop, The South, Blancmange and Big Country.

The Chiltern Hills are sure to be rocking along with the acts, with so many back-to-back hits. It’s going to be a party not to miss!

You can get the party started early by rocking up to our Friday Night tribute extravaganza, our traditional Chilfest eve celebration.

Headlining on the Friday is Robert Lamberti as the George Michael Tribute who will be bringing some Club Tropicana vibes to the Tring faithful.

Also on the bill are Ultimate Elton, Noasis, The Freddie and Queen Experience and The Dolly Show.

So you can definitely maybe forget working 9 to 5 because it’s going to be a special kind of magic at Chilfest this year!
