Exeter Respect Festival 2026 is Exeter's annual celebration of diversity, and will once again return to Belmont Park on the 6th and 7th June.
2026 will mark the 29th anniversary of the first Respect Festival in Exeter in 1997 that brought communities together to celebrate their differences and commonalities.
This year’s headliners include Avtar, who will be bringing a piece of his Punjabi culture to Exeter Respect by leading an audience dance-a-long; and Crina, who will bring high-energy rhythms, infectious melodies, and a vibrant fusion of sounds from Romania.
There will be many outdoor processions and activities, plus opportunities for visitors to sample global food, fine clothing and handmade crafts from a range of stalls.
