About

Our natural amphitheatre arena at Cannock Chase Forest is located in the heart of the Midlands. Cannock Chase is designated as an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONB) and is the biggest outdoor pursuits tourist attraction in Staffordshire.

Forest Live, Forestry England’s summer concert series presented with Cuffe & Taylor, has announced dance queen Becky Hill as the latest headliner for its 2026 shows.

Following an incredible show in Forestry England Delamere in 2024, Becky will be returning to the great outdoors, playing at the stunning Forestry England Cannock Chase on 26 June.

BRIT Award winner Becky Hill is best known for her work in the house, pop and electronic genres, with her formidable voice being one of the most recognisable in the business. Originally finding fame on The Voice in 2012, she became the only contestant to score number one single straight after the show ended. She has since established herself as a leading artist in dance music, frequently collaborating with major DJs and producers.

Becky’s achievements, both with this latest album and her career to date, are nothing short of staggering. The two-time BRIT Award winning artist (2022 & 2023) who recently completed a headline UK and Ireland arena tour has exceeded 10 billion career streams to date, plus six UK Top 10 hits, as well as a number 1 single. Becky’s gold-selling debut album, ‘Only Honest On The Weekend’ soared into the Top 10 on its release in 2021 and featured the hits ‘Heaven On My Mind’ with Sigala and ‘Remember’ with David Guetta (150 million streams and counting), who also appeared on the top 5 anthem for female empowerment, ‘Crazy What Love Can Do’. What makes this more impressive is that Becky has achieved this as a woman in an industry, and in a genre that is far from celebrated for its equality. As the recent report by the Women and Equalities Committee (WEC) concluded, misogyny in the music industry is “endemic” and Becky has felt that keenly throughout her career.

Merging stellar performances from world-class acts with beautiful outdoor locations to create an atmosphere like no other, Forest Live will celebrate its 25th Anniversary in 2026.

Forestry England manage and care for the nation’s 1,500 woods and forests. They use the money Forest Live raises to maintain these beautiful natural areas for everyone to enjoy, run important conservation projects and keep growing trees.

Last year they planted some 7.4 million trees and welcomed 313 million visits in 2024/25. Everyone in England lives within a one-hour drive of one of the nation’s forests. Over two million people have enjoyed the Forest Live gigs over the last 25 years.

Following a hugely successful run of shows over the past 25 years, this year sees Forestry England present the concert series in partnership with Live Nation’s Cuffe & Taylor for the third year running.
