From the kinetic energy of live music to the reflective cadence of spoken word and literary discourse, Latitude has always embodied an ethos of discovery and inclusivity, traversing genres, cultures and ideas. It is so much more than a music festival, and we cannot wait to reveal more and more as the next 9 months unfold…
A celebration twenty years in the making. Weekend tickets for our milestone 20th edition are on sale at the link below. Secure yours now and join us for a magical weekend where music, art and ideas collide. Your dream summer weekend awaits.
Twenty years of Latitude feels like both a moment and a lifetime. We've watched this festival grow from an ambitious idea into a cultural institution that has genuinely changed what people expect from a festival experience. This first lineup announcement celebrates everything Latitude has always stood for: fearless programming, artistic ambition, and that magical collision between discovery and legacy. With David Byrne playing an exclusive festival set, Teddy Swims bringing his soulful energy to the festival, and Lewis Capaldi returning after his courageous journey, alongside artists ranging from The Flaming Lips to The Last Dinner Party, this lineup tells the story of where we've been and where we're going.
But Latitude has never been just about music. The past twenty years have been extraordinary, culturally, politically, and socially, and our yet-to-be-announced comedy, theatre, dance, poetry and literary programme will dive deep into the most important artists and moments that have shaped us all. I couldn't be prouder of what we've built together, and I can't wait to celebrate with everyone at Henham Park this July.
