Tailgate is back for 2026!
An all-day blast of Live Music, Country, Rock & Spring-Time BBQ goodness! 🌞🔥

🎉 WELCOME TO TAILGATE 2026! 🎉
Happening once again at THE LOT, just off Radcliffe Place car park in Wakefield city centre. Expect live sets from Matt Hodges & friends, plus brand-new special guests dropping in throughout the day! 🎤🌟

We’ve got country, rock & roll, BBQ and booze.
What else do you need?! 🎸🍔🌭🍹

New for 2026!

🎟️ Tickets start at £10, which gets you one BBQ item (burger/hotdog) OR a selected drink.
Limited-edition merch, pop-up stalls and stacks of drink offers will be available all day! 🍻🛍️

🥂 Want more bang for your buck?
Grab our Boozy Brunch Pass — 10 drink tokens + 1 BBQ item!

🕐 Gates open at 1PM — seating is first-come, first-served and very limited, so rock up early to grab a spot! (Sorry—no reservations for this event.) 🪑

🍽️ BBQ items are limited, so get your orders in early to avoid missing out!

We’re rolling right through to 7PM, then heading inside RBT Video with DJs until late. 🎶🎧

🚸🐾 Kids and dogs welcome!
Just keep them on a lead — this is primarily an adult event.

🍺 Drink options include:
• A schooner of draft
• A house spirit & mixer
• A canned soft drink

👊 Can't wait to see you all again for another massive year! 👊

📢 Weather Plan:
If the weather ruins the outdoor setup, Tailgate 2026 will move to our indoor venue Now Serving on Market Street (just a 5-minute walk from LOT). Any changes will be announced across LOT’s Facebook and Instagram pages.
