Rochester Castle, Uptown’s most stunning location, will transform into a magical place filled with people dancing and singing along to nostalgic tunes.
Uptown is all about bands that evoke nostalgia. Last year, we were thrilled to welcome UB40 featuring Ali Campbell, Maxi Priest, General Levy, The Marley Experience, and more for Uptown’s debut at the castle. The venue transformed into an enchanting space, offering a fantastic experience for both locals and visitors, who left with smiles on their faces and unforgettable memories.
In 2025, we’re excited to open the gates again with another fantastic lineup yet to be announced and a full day of Uptown’s incredible atmosphere. Get ready for relaxed vibes, nostalgia, and the friendliest crowd at one of the UK’s most well-preserved castles. Plus, don’t miss out on the delicious local food and additional entertainment around the castle grounds!
