Becky Hill announced for Forest Live line-up

Becky Hill first found fame on TV show The Voice

Becky Hill has been announced as the latest artist to join next year's Forest Live line-up.

She is due to take to the stage at Cannock Chase Forest in Staffordshire on 26 June, as part of a series of gigs taking place in woodlands across the country.

She previously performed at Delamere Forest in Cheshire as part of the same series in 2024. Tickets for the concert in Staffordshire go on sale from Friday.

Hill, from Bewdley, Worcestershire, originally found fame on The Voice and was the only contestant to score a number one single straight after the show.

The two-time BRIT Award winner has recently completed a headline arena tour of the UK and Ireland, and is best known for her work in the house, pop and electronic genres.

Her songs have been streamed more than 10 billion times, and she has had six UK Top 10 hits to her name as well as her number one single, Gecko (Overdrive).

She joins other confirmed headliners for Forest Live in 2026 including Deacon Blue, Lightning Seeds, Snow Patrol, The Kooks and UB40 ft Ali Campbell across various venues.

The shows form the 25th anniversary year for the woodland gigs, known for bringing performances from world-class acts to spectacular outdoor locations.

They are hosted by Forestry England, an organisation which manages 1,500 of the nation's woods and forests.

Money from Forest Live ticket sales helps maintain them and fund conservation projects.
