BOOMTOWN OFFERS RADICAL RANGE IN FIRST WAVE LINEUP FOR 2026
FESTIVAL PREVIEW | BOOMTOWN FESTIVAL by Morgan Hermiston
In the heart of Hampshire, Boomtown Festival promises radical redesign, and a whole lot of range in 2026. From 12th-16th August, you can enjoy acts from a multitude of musical genres. As far as 2026 lineups go, this is one of the best we’ve seen so far.
Whether you’re into house, techno, ska or pop, Boomtown have brought together some of the biggest names in those genres. With a lot of festival lineups, you can identify a demographic pretty quickly, but with this one, you can tell the idea was to be as audience inclusive as possible.
Headliners include Kneecap, Scissor Sisters and Madness – where else would you see their names together? Others include Scooter, Asnikko, and Shaggy.
So far, other acts announced consist of Antony Szmierek, Bad Manners, Marlon Hoffstadt, and even Vengaboys. Boomtown have offered one of those lineups that you may be confused about at first, but the more you look at it, the more it seems to make sense.
Tickets are already on sale for Boomtown 2026, with many ticket combinations already low or sold out. This is a festival that you don’t want to miss out on. You can find remaining tickets here, or check out the Instagram post below for more information.
