Stakeholder Engagement: Northacre

Background

Following the success of previous years, We Are OPS returned to support In It Together 2026 with comprehensive operations, festival health and safety, and licensing services. Having worked alongside Climax and Full Fat Events across their portfolio of events since 2019, and supporting In It Together since its launch in 2022, our team continued to provide the operational expertise required to deliver Wales’ largest family-friendly music festival safely and efficiently.

Held at Old Park Farm, Port Talbot, In It Together welcomed 36,000 attendees across a packed weekend of live music, entertainment and family activities. As the festival continues to evolve, We Are OPS remained responsible for ensuring robust planning, regulatory compliance and operational delivery throughout the advance planning period and on site.
