We're excited to reveal the full lineup for the Imagesound Caffè Nero Stage, bringing an exciting new live music experience to the heart of the festival in 2026.
Set within the onsite Caffè Nero coffee shop experience, the stage will host live performances throughout the weekend — from Friday 14th to Sunday 16th August — combining great coffee, fresh food, and incredible live music in a relaxed festival setting.
Curated by our friends at Talentbanq, the lineup brings together an exciting mix of emerging talent and established artists, making the Caffè Nero Stage a must-visit destination across the weekend.
A New Festival Experience
For the first time at Country Calling, festival-goers will be able to step inside a fully functioning Caffè Nero store on site, serving barista-made coffee, breakfast, and food throughout the day.
But beyond the coffee, the space transforms into something special — an intimate live music setting where fans can start their mornings with acoustic sets, discover new artists, and enjoy performances just steps away from their morning brew.
Whether you're camping on site or arriving early for the day, the Caffè Nero Stage offers the perfect way to ease into the festival atmosphere.
