I can't believe it! We have reached the end of the festival. As Sunday morning dawns, people will be collapsing their tents, saying their goodbyes and, rather reluctantly, pulling on their clothes.
But before we get too tearful, let's fill you in on how the finale unfolded.
Following the fitness and yoga sessions that have been an unheralded feature of every day, the Lizardmen arrived. Their reptile zoo gave visitors the chance to handle – and be photographed with – eleven-foot snakes, providing the perfect counterpoint to the bees the day before.
After lunch, Captain Amy led a relating workshop, using fun activities to encourage openness and help people tackle personal insecurities. That naturally transitioned into the afternoon entertainment, with Theone and Maddie taking to the bar stage for a relaxed set that kept the wellbeing mood flowing.
One activity that had been building throughout the week now reached its climax. Led by Theone, the UK's first naked choir had been coming together every day, combining their voices to create something unique and special. As evening arrived, the Nudefest Choir took to the stage and the 100 singers should be immensely proud of what they achieved in such a short time.
The tranquillity of the choristers didn't last for long. The Village People Experience burst onto the stage, with YMCA and In the Navy ringing out across the site as the "Young Men" certainly discovered there was no need to feel down. Somehow, the energy kept rising as our next headline act, Black Lace, took over. Coming straight after The Village People Experience, Agadoo and Superman ensured the dance floor stayed packed all night.
You might be forgiven for thinking that was the end, but not quite. Our fifth live performance of the day came from Sweet Sensation, who rounded off the live entertainment with a glorious mix of soul, Motown and disco that felt like the perfect ending to a remarkable week.
However, there was one more thing...
Football fans will be aware that the World Cup is taking place and that England faced Norway in the quarter-finals late on Saturday night. The events team transformed The Dome dance area into a viewing cinema, complete with DJ-led goal celebrations and lighting effects, allowing naked football fans to pile into the venue to watch – and, as it turned out, celebrate together.
So that's it for Nudefest 2026. It has been an incredible and memorable week. Our thanks go to everyone who made it possible, from the fantastic team behind the scenes to every single guest who helped create such a special atmosphere.
We now need to take a very long nap.
Although... if you still want more, EveryBody Festival is only a few weeks away in August.
Just saying.
