The Guitar Show & Bass Show UK 2026

After starting 2026 on the other side of the world, attending major events like CES in Las Vegas and NAMM in Los Angeles, coming back across the ocean and landing in the UK for The Guitar Show & The Bass Show feels genuinely special for us. There’s something different about being here — closer to home, closer to the European music scene, and surrounded by a community that lives and breathes guitar culture in its own unique way.

The Guitar Show & The Bass Show is widely known as the largest guitar-focused event in the UK, bringing together brands, artists, builders, and thousands of players over two packed days at Cranmore Park in Birmingham . From the latest gear and technology to live performances, workshops, and hands-on demos, it’s the kind of place where everything around the guitar world comes together under one roof. After seeing the scale and energy of global events like NAMM, we came here with high expectations — and a lot of excitement about what the UK scene had to offer.

We’ve just arrived, and there’s already a strong sense that this weekend is going to be something special. Walking into a space filled with guitars, amps, pedals, and musicians from all backgrounds immediately reminds you why events like this matter. It’s not just about products, it’s about people — the conversations, the ideas, and the shared passion for music that connects everyone in the room.

There’s also something particularly exciting about being in the UK for this. The country has produced some of the most influential guitarists and artists in history, and that legacy is still very much alive today. From emerging players to established names, there’s a level of creativity and identity here that makes you wonder what you’re about to discover next. That’s exactly the feeling we have right now — curiosity, anticipation, and the sense that anything could happen over the next two days.

What kind of players will we meet? What ideas will we come across? What conversations will turn into future collaborations? These are the questions that make events like this so valuable for us, and why we were so excited to be here in the first place. After months of building, traveling, and showcasing Litejam around the world, moments like this are where everything comes together.

This is just the beginning of our time at The Guitar Show & The Bass Show, and we’re looking forward to diving deeper into everything the event has to offer. We’ll be sharing much more soon — from the people we meet to the projects we discover and the experiences that stand out the most.

Stay tuned.
