Barton Live: Electric Heart 2026

Electric Heart Festival lands in Salford on Sunday 5 July 2026, bringing a brand-new indie festival to the city for one unforgettable summer day.

The iconic Barton Aerodrome transforms into an open-air playground for guitar music, big choruses, and shared moments under wide skies. This is a full-throttle celebration of modern indie, built for the believers, the late-night gig goers, the playlist diggers, and anyone who feels music hit before it’s even finished the first chorus.

Expect soaring guitars, raw lyrics, hands-in-the-air anthems, and sing-along moments from start to finish, the kind of atmosphere Manchester was built for.

Electric Heart isn’t just another festival date, it’s a statement. A new chapter for the city’s live music scene. A place where daylight fades into neon evenings, strangers become mates, and the music doesn’t just play, it connects.

One city. One field. One electric feeling.
