Event Details
The Lytham St Annes Art Collection is one of the most significant Town Hall collections in the country. On 29 June 1925 the first painting was presented to the Council by John Booth (1856-1941), son of Edwin Henry Booth (1829-1899), who founded the eponymous grocery business which still operates across the North West today. Booth donated The Herd Lassie (1876) by Richard Ansdell (1815-1885) to the townspeople of Lytham St Annes and wished for it to be ‘a nucleus for the formation of an art gallery’ and hoped that it would promote the cultural significance of the thriving town. This generous donation set a precedent that inspired eminent residents to donate artworks, the most prolific of which was Alderman James Herbert Dawson (1867-1963) who donated over 50 artefacts to the Collection.
Legacy: Donor Spotlight shines a light on the key figures, past and present, who have played a significant role in the formation and development of the Lytham St Annes Art Collection.
The free to visit, first floor Fylde Gallery at Lytham Hall is open Thursdays to Saturdays 11am to 4pm, with donations welcome which are reinvested back into the art collection. Please note opening times over the Christmas period may vary – check via 01253 736652

Event Details
| Colin Blunstone, lead singer of The Zombies and acclaimed Solo Artist, returns to UK stages with the “Believe In Miracles” Tour, his first national solo outing in 7 years. The tour title is a nod to Blunstone’s 1972 hit “I Don’t Believe In Miracles” (penned by Argent singer/guitarist Russ Ballard), but is also a reflection on his remarkable 7-decade career. Blunstone relates, “I joined The Zombies as a teen thinking it would be a two or three year adventure. Never in my wildest dreams could I have imagined it would lead to a lifetime in music…and that at the tender age of 80, I’d be the subject of a documentary, recording a new album and embarking on a major tour!”.
His career-spanning show will feature classics from The Zombies, favourites from his solo releases and collaborations, and debut new material from his forthcoming studio album. The Bangles’ Susanna Hoffs said it best during her heartfelt speech inducting The Zombies into The Rock & Roll Hall of Fame in March 2019: “Colin…your voice is just plain sexy!” The world first fell in love with that mysteriously silky voice from The Zombies’ 1960’s singles “She’s Not There”, “Tell Her No” and “Time of the Season”. The band’s untimely demise in late 1967 led Blunstone into a solo career which began in earnest with the release of the lush and string-laden One Year in 1971, produced by former Zombies’ bandmates Rod Argent and Chris White, which scored him a Top 15 UK hit with Denny Laine’s “Say You Don’t Mind”. He has released 10 albums of his own over a period spanning more than 50 years, including 1972’s Ennismore and 1974’s Journey, and has lent his remarkable pipes to the recordings of many others, most notably the Alan Parsons Project, who featured Blunstone on their 1982 hit “Old and Wise,” as well as on several albums. A chance reunion with Rod Argent in 1999 brought about a 25-year resurgence for The Zombies, prolifically touring the world and releasing new material. In the midst, Blunstone still managed to record three solo releases – The Ghost Of You And Me in 2009, On The Air Tonight in 2012 and most recently, the EP Less is More in early 2024, a set of 5 sparsely-recorded demos showcasing those velvety vocals accompanied only by acoustic guitar. Blunstone celebrated his 80th birthday in June at the London premiere of Hung Up On A Dream: The Zombies Documentary, the first-ever feature film chronicling the band’s journey from teenage friends to Rock & Roll Hall of Fame Inductees (now available on AppleTV and Amazon). With Argent’s retirement for health reasons in 2024, Blunstone is refocusing on his solo career while also continuing to celebrate the legacy of The Zombies. A new album is planned for release in 2026.

Event Details
Joined by his band Freak Freely, The Lose Control and The Door hitmaker will headline the opening night of the North West’s largest music festival on Wednesday July 1, as one of only five huge outdoor shows for the global superstar in mainland UK next summer. He will be supported by breakout vocalist and songwriter Lauren Spencer Smith and multi-instrumentalist Jordan Rakei.
Lytham Festival co-founder Peter Taylor said: “What an incredible first headliner to reveal for Lytham Festival 2026. Teddy Swims is a vocal powerhouse and someone who has enjoyed a meteoric rise to success over the last few years so we are delighted to be bringing him to the Fylde coast.
“He will present a huge opening night as we celebrate the 15th outing of Lytham Festival, and this is only just the start. We have four more amazing headliners to announce with more news coming very, very soon.”
Hailing from Atlanta, Georgia, Teddy Swims has been putting in real work for years going from YouTube sensation to international chart-topper. A quiet, steady grind brought him to the forefront with record-breaking songs, sold-out global tours, and iconic performances. With a voice that effortlessly blends R&B, soul, and pop, Swims captivates listeners with raw emotion, soulful resonance, and lyrics that explore love, loss, and self-discovery.
2024 marked a record year, with multi-platinum hits “Lose Control” and “The Door” from his debut album I’ve Tried Everything But Therapy (Part 1). “Lose Control” reached #1 on the Billboard Hot 100, became the longest-charting Hot 100 hit in history, and is now 6x Platinum with more than 4 billion streams. With more than 12 billion streams across his catalogue, Swims continues to cement his place as one of music’s most powerful voices.
His breakout success earned him a 2025 GRAMMY nomination for Best New Artist and three 2025 BET Award nominations, including Best New Artist, Best Collaboration and Best Male R&B/Pop Artist. Swims has also won multiple prestigious international awards, including Best International Album and Best International Act at the Los 40 Music Awards, Most Radio Airplay in France, and Billboard Music Awards for “Lose Control,” including Top Hot 100 Song and Top Radio Song.
He followed his debut album with Part 2, featuring standout singles “Bad Dreams,” “Guilty,” and “Are You Even Real” ft. GIVĒON. The journey continued with the Complete Edition with the expanded album including six new tracks and across the full project, Swims also collaborated with Muni Long, Coco Jones, and GloRilla.

Event Details
Seven-time GRAMMY Award winning artist Alanis Morissette is revealed as the fifth and final headliner for Lancashire’s Lytham Festival 2026.
After this summer saw her headline show on the Fylde coast cancelled due to adverse weather conditions, it is announced today the Canadian/American musician will return to TK Maxx presents Lytham Festival on Thursday July 2 for one of only five UK performances next summer. She will be joined on the night by musical powerhouse Skunk Anansie.
For 30 years Alanis Morissette has been one of the most influential women in contemporary music with her deeply expressive music and performances earning vast critical praise. Her 1995 debut album Jagged Little Pill was followed by nine more eclectic and acclaimed albums and her music and most notable hits Ironic, You Oughta Know, Hand in My Pocket and Thank U remain as current today.
In 2019, Jagged Little Pill the musical made its Broadway debut and was nominated for 15 Tony Awards, winning two at the 2021 ceremony.
In 2021, Alanis’ sold-out world tour celebrating 25 years of Jagged Little Pill was the number one female-fronted tour of the year. Last year her 35-date North American Triple Moon Tour sold more than half a million tickets and packed every venue to capacity, and this summer saw her bring her 2025 World Tour to the UK for a limited run of sold-out dates between shows in South America and Europe.
Formed in London in 1994, Skunk Anansie are known for their powerful fusion of hard rock, punk, and funk influences. Fronted by the charismatic and dynamic Skin, whose distinctive voice and commanding stage presence have become the band’s signature, Skunk Anansie broke through with explosive hits like Weak, Hedonism (Just Because You Feel Good) and Charity.
After a hiatus in the early 2000s, Skunk Anansie reunited in 2009, continuing to tour and release new material that reaffirms their reputation as one of the most electrifying and thought-provoking bands in British rock, highlighted by the release of their recent top 10 album, the critically and commercially acclaimed The Painful Truth.

The most successful duo in UK music history Pet Shop Boys are heading to TK Maxx presents Lytham Festival 2026.
Pet Shop Boys are one of the most requested acts for the North West’s largest music festival and it is announced today Neil Tennant and Chris Lowe will bring their groundbreaking, euphoric pop spectacle Pet Shop Boys – DREAMWORLD – The Greatest Hits Live show to Lytham on Saturday July 4.
And in a move sure to please fans, the headlining show will mark the biggest ever homecoming date for Chris Lowe who was born and raised on the Fylde coast in Blackpool.
As Pet Shop Boys, Neil Tennant and Chris Lowe are listed in The Guinness Book of Records as the most successful duo in UK music history. Since signing to Parlophone Records in 1985, they have achieved 44 top 30 singles in the UK, including 22 top 10 hits and four number ones.
In their live shows Pet Shop Boys have created an original style of pop musical theatre, collaborating with a multitude of directors, designers and artists, including Derek Jarman, Zaha Hadid, Es Devlin and Tom Scutt.
Dreamworld: The Greatest Hits Live kicked off in Milan in May 2022 touring arenas and festivals across Europe and the UK to great acclaim. Critics hailed the show a ‘sleek, nostalgic treat’ (The Telegraph), ‘an utterly joyous celebration’ (Metro), and ‘an ecstatic presentation of 40 years of brilliance’ (Evening Standard).
Last year Dreamworld played a sold-out five-night residency at the Royal Opera House, as well as headline performances at the Isle of Wight Festival and Radio 2 In The Park. In yet another 5-star review, London’s Metro raved “The finest British pop group of the past 40 years are in the form of their lives – a life-affirming, soul-reviving joy of a show.”
As writers, producers and remixers, Tennant and Lowe have collaborated, remixed or written for a wide range of artists including Dusty Springfield, Lady Gaga, Liza Minnelli, Blur, Madonna, David Bowie, Yoko Ono, The Killers, Girls Aloud, Paul Weller, Noel Gallagher and the Sleaford Mods. Of their career, The Independent stated “their career has perpetually shown that pop music and high art cannot only co-exist but surpass supposedly superior musical forms.”
Lytham Festival co-founder Peter Taylor said: “Finally! It is no secret we, and our loyal customers, have wanted Pet Shop Boys at Lytham Festival for a long time so we are delighted to have secured a headlining show with them for our very special 15th anniversary.
“Pet Shop Boys are legends. Their music has shaped generations and they are as relevant today as they were when they first broke through in the mid-80s.

Event Details

GRAMMY Award winning international superstar rapper, singer, songwriter and actor Pitbull will bring the ultimate party to the North West as he headlines the closing night of TK Maxx presents Lytham Festival 2026.
With billions of audio streams and video views, along with hundreds of gold and platinum certifications, Pitbull’s career stands as one of the most impressive in music history. And in a move which will see the first ever rap artist headline Lytham Festival, he is now bringing his I’m Back! Tour to the Lancashire coast on Sunday July 5.
Pitbull, aka Armando Christian Perez, is affectionally known as Mr Worldwide. Earlier this year fans caused a viral storm during his high energy European tour with tens of thousands of them wearing bald caps and dubbing themselves “The Bald E’s” in honour of his signature look and larger-than-life persona, and Lytham Festival organisers are encouraging fans to go equally wild in 2026.
With the I’m Back! Tour Pitbull guarantees to continue to celebrate this culture and bring the unstoppable pure party energy for fans. Set to be on an even bigger stage with highly stunning visuals, explosive pyrotechnics, and Pitbull’s signature performance. With a fusion of music, lights, and special effects—alongside his band, The Agents, and dancers, The Most Bad Ones—the show will deliver an unforgettable, one of a kind high-energy party for everyone to enjoy.
Lytham Festival co-founder Peter Taylor said: “This is huge! Pitbull is one of the hottest tickets around and this will be the first time we have a headlining show from a much-celebrated rap artist. We cannot wait to welcome him to our wonderful festival and I absolutely want to see a sea of bald caps on Lytham Green.
“Pitbull is an artist who has enjoyed hit after hit globally. He is Mr Worldwide and he really does present the ultimate party. This is going to be one incredible way to close the celebrations of our 15th anniversary festival.”
An international superstar, education ambassador, entrepreneur, and motivational speaker, Pitbull does not stand still. Aside from global success with hits including Fireball, Hotel Room Service, Give Me Everything, Timber and Don’t Stop The Party, beyond music he has built a diverse and expanding business portfolio.
His signature “EEEEEEEYOOOOOO” grito (yell) is one of fewer than 40 sound trademarks protected by the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office. He recently made history by partnering with Florida International University to rename its football stadium Pitbull Stadium, and he is also a passionate advocate for education.
Last year Pitbull teamed up with rock legends Bon Jovi for the powerful track Now or Never, blending his signature high-energy sound with the band’s anthemic rock style. The unexpected collaboration quickly gained global traction, further proving Pitbull’s ability to transcend genres and generations.
With no signs of slowing down, Pitbull continues to push boundaries and inspire millions around the world, leaving a profound cultural impact and cementing a legacy that spans entertainment, business, education, and beyond.

2019 Lil Jon & Tyga – Daddy Shoot
Lil Jon joins Pitbull for the ultimate Lytham Festival Party when the superstar affectionately known as Mr Worldwide brings his I’m Back! Tour to the Lancashire coast to mark the closing night of the festival’s 15th anniversary.
One of the most prominent figures in music and pop culture alike, Lil Jon has performed for hundreds of thousands of fans with the likes of Usher & Ludacris, Afrojack, Steve Aoki, Pitbull, TLC Becky G, Offset, LMFAO, Too $hort and E-40 to name a few.
Back in 2014 Lil Jon proved once again he’s a powerhouse artist teaming up with DJ Snake for their smash hit Turn Down For What, which created a massive worldwide craze. Most recently, Lil Jon was the musical director for Usher’s 2024 Super Bowl halftime show in Las Vegas, where he performed their iconic record, Yeah!, which has garnered more than a billion-streams on Spotify.
Earlier this year, Lil Jon released the first of his meditation albums called Total Manifestation, which was met with resounding success and he followed-up that album with his second one titled Manifest Abundance.
Known best for his role in creating and popularizing the southern movement and lifestyle known as Crunk, Lil Jon delivered a string of regional hits in the 90’s with the East Side Boyz eventually becoming a national force in 2001 thanks to the tracks Bia Bia and Put Yo Hood Up. Their iconic albums include We Still Crunk!, Put Yo Hood Up, Kings of Crunk and Crunk Juice.
His consistent hitmaking has earned him legions of fans across the globe and armfuls of awards including two BMI Songwriter of the Year awards, 11 Billboard Awards (for the two hit Usher tracks Yeah! and Lovers and Friends), a GRAMMY, a Radio Music Award, a BET award, two MTV Video Music Awards and an American Music Award.
