- "A packed programme of music, entertainment and family-friendly activities", in the council's words
- This year's story: the Hooley "will bring the legendary story of Martin and the Dragon to life in a fun, theatrical and magical way... filled with imagination and a little bit of fire"
- Stage times and the 2026 line-up are not published yet - the date was announced on 21 August 2026
