A much-loved entertainer has been confirmed for a return performance at this year’s Music at the Manor.

Jake Ward will once again take to the stage on Saturday, July 11, 2026, bringing his popular mix of live music and energy to the fundraising event.

A spokesperson for The Abel Foundation said: “We are very excited over at the Abel Foundation team HQ as local legend and community favourite Jake Ward returns to perform again at the Manor.

“If you don’t want to miss out on seeing this fabulous young man perform – along with all the other acts, then please book your tickets now. Music at the Manor is shaping up to be something special, you don't want to miss out.”

The event is organised by The Abel Foundation, a Hampshire-based charity which supports families affected by mitochondrial disease.

Early bird tickets are on sale now for £35, with a limited number available before prices rise to £40. Tickets can be purchased via The Abel Foundation’s Ticket Tailor page: tickettailor.com/events/theabelfoundation

Founded in 2016, The Abel Foundation runs fundraising and awareness events across the region to help those living with mitochondrial disease. Music at the Manor, held at the manor in Winchester Road, Andover, has become one of its major annual events, attracting hundreds of visitors each year.

The festival features a line-up of local artists, tribute acts and family-friendly entertainment, with proceeds going directly towards the charity’s vital support work.
