We’re so excited to see you all on Friday 25th and Saturday 26th June 2027 at Mill Cottage, Goring where we’ll, once again, be celebrating the life and music of George Michael. As always, the Outside25 team are working away in the background to make 2027 a very special couple of days in the garden of George’s former home.

And remember, it will be George’s 64th birthday on Friday 25th June 2027. So, it will be an extra celebration. 🎉🎂🎈💜

But most importantly, we’ll all be there to raise money for various national and local charities. The following information will help you enjoy your day, and we will continue to update it as we approach the event.

Tickets available from 5pm Sunday 27th Sep 2026.

Important Seating Changes

You asked, we listened! In 2027, Outside25 will become a fully seated event.

After last year’s intense heat and hearing from guests who found standing difficult or needed additional mobility support, we want everyone to enjoy the event in greater comfort. A seat for every attendee means you can relax, stay comfortable and make the most of the whole experience without worrying about finding somewhere to sit.

To make this possible, the previous tables and table seating will no longer be available. However, guests in the front row will have access to small shared tables for drinks and personal items.

We believe this change will make Outside25 more comfortable, accessible and enjoyable for everyone—and we can’t wait to welcome you in 2027!

    Performers, musicians, supporting acts and timings are subject to change. Changes to individual acts or the running order will not normally qualify for a refund.
