MORE ARTISTS ANNOUNCED + STAGE SPLITS REVEALED FOR NEIGHBOURHOOD WEEKENDER 2026
VICTORIA PARK, WARRINGTON • SATURDAY 23rd & SUNDAY 24th MAY 2026 • BANK HOLIDAY WEEKEND
Neighbourhood Weekender has just dropped another serious wave of names for 2026, and honestly, it’s getting ridiculous how good this lineup is shaping up.
Joining the party this May Bank Holiday are a bunch of the most exciting emerging acts in the UK right now, Girl In The Year Above, Basht, and M60 have all been added, along with a load more across the bill. If you’re the type who loves catching tomorrow’s headliners while they’re still playing the smaller stages, this one’s for you.
We’ve watched Sam Fender, Lewis Capaldi, Wet Leg, CMAT, Maisie Peters and Tom Grennan smash it here early doors before going on to rule arenas and festivals worldwide. Even this year’s Sunday headliners Blossoms, played the festival back in their baby-band days… and now they’re coming back to close the main stage. Full circle moments don’t get much sweeter than that.
The new additions sit nicely alongside the already stacked bill featuring Richard Ashcroft, Kaiser Chiefs, The K’s, Example, Sophie Ellis-Bextor, Cast, DMA’s, Jamie Webster, Shed Seven, Razorlight, The Fratellis, Melanie C, The Royston Club and plenty more.
