Singing star Becky Hill is headlining at Forest Live 2026 in Cannock Chase. Following an incredible show in Forestry England Delamere in 2024, Becky will be returning to the great outdoors, playing at the stunning Forestry England Cannock Chase on June 26. BRIT Award winner Becky Hill, from Bewdley, Worcestershire, is best known for her work in the house, pop and electronic genres, with her formidable voice being one of the most recognisable in the business. Originally finding fame on The Voice in 2012, she became the only contestant to score number one single straight after the show ended. She has since established herself as a leading artist in dance music, frequently collaborating with major DJs and producers. Becky’s achievements, both with this latest album and her career to date, are nothing short of staggering. The two-time BRIT Award winning artist (2022 & 2023) who recently completed a headline UK and Ireland arena tour has exceeded 10 billion career streams to date, plus six UK Top 10 hits, as well as a number 1 single. Becky’s gold-selling debut album, ‘Only Honest On The Weekend’ soared into the Top 10 on its release in 2021 and featured the hits ‘Heaven On My Mind’ with Sigala and ‘Remember’ with David Guetta (150 million streams and counting), who also appeared on the top 5 anthem for female empowerment, ‘Crazy What Love Can Do’. What makes this more impressive is that Becky has achieved this as a woman in an industry, and in a genre that is far from celebrated for its equality. As the recent report by the Women and Equalities Committee (WEC) concluded, misogyny in the music industry is “endemic” and Becky has felt that keenly throughout her career.
