May 2027

Street festivals in May

20 festivals in 11 countries. 19 accept applications directly.

May is one of the months worth routing rather than booking one date at a time. Festivals in the same weeks are often within a day's drive of each other, and organisers on the same circuit talk — being programmed at one is the cheapest introduction to the next.

When to apply: for a festival in May 2027, the programme is usually decided between November and February 2026. If you are reading this in May 2027 looking for a booking this season, you are a year late for most of them — but not for the ones that fill gaps late, and there are always gaps.
