Energy Coast LIVE! 2026 is a youth-led community festival taking place at Energy Coast UTC in Lilyhall on Tuesday 7th July 2026. Delivered by Northern Equality and Diversity (NEAD CIC) alongside partners and supporters from across West Cumbria, the event has been created by young people, for young people.
The event aims to create a safe, welcoming and exciting environment where young people feel seen, valued and involved. Alongside a full programme of live entertainment, attendees will be able to explore the careers fair, engage with local organisations, discover opportunities and connect with others from across the region.
Energy Coast LIVE! is more than just a festival, it is a platform for young people to lead, participate and shape something positive within their community.
