Twenty years in the making. Introducing Klarna presents Latitude 2026: the twentieth edition. We are overjoyed to present a heavenly line up of artists joining us for our milestone 20th anniversary celebrations. The wait is over, let’s unpack…
Your Headliners
Scotland-born and New York-bred, David Byrne will grace the top spot on our Obelisk Arena next July. Best known as the visionary frontman for pioneering new-wave band Talking Heads, Byrne has also forged a remarkable solo career spanning music, film, theatre and visual art. Known for his distinctive voice, art-school sensibility and boundary-defying creativity, he has continually reshaped the landscape of popular music over the course of his extraordinary, decades-long career.
Lewis Capaldi returns to headline our Obelisk Arena in 2026. The Scottish singer-songwriter’s raw emotion, soaring vocals and unfiltered wit have established him not only as a household name, but as one of the defining voices of contemporary pop. Blending soul-stirring ballads with a disarmingly self-deprecating humour, Capaldi continues to captivate audiences globally, celebrated for his songwriting brilliance, authenticity and heart.
Teddy Swims has gone from strength to strength since his last Henham Park appearance in 2023. The American singer-songwriter’s rich, soulful voice has established him as one of the most compelling new voices in modern music. Seamlessly fusing soul, R&B, pop and country, Swims has earned widespread acclaim for his emotional honesty and powerhouse performances. We can’t wait to welcome him back to the Obelisk Arena, this time as your headliner.
Across Our Stages
The Flaming Lips are poised to bring their immersive, otherworldly and deliciously weird live show next summer. With over four decades of expanding the possibilities of alternative rock through lush, psychedelic compositions, The Flaming Lips continue to inspire awe across generations.
The Last Dinner Party make their most welcome return to Henham Park in 2026. With a commanding stage presence and a unique baroque-pop sound that balances elegance with edge, the band have quickly established themselves as a force to be reckoned with, defined by vision, artistry and fearless originality.
Rebecca Lucy Taylor, also known as Self Esteem, returns to Latitude following her celebrated performance on our Second Stage in 2022. A true visionary in contemporary pop, Self Esteem stands as a vital and transformative voice, praised for her candour, creativity and unshakeable confidence.
Tom Grennan’s soulful voice, heartfelt lyricism and infectious energy have made him one of the stand-out artists of his generation, known for his anthemic sound which blends pop, soul and indie with raw emotional honesty. We can’t wait to welcome him back to Henham Park for the first time since 2019.
Wet Leg’s debut on our Alcove stage back in 2021 was one of the stand-out moments of the year, and we are thrilled to be welcoming them back to Henham Park next year. With their seamless fusion of irony and sincerity, Wet Leg have crafted a sound that’s entirely their own – vibrant, subversive and unmistakably of the moment.
Since Tom Odell’s critically-acclaimed debut Long Way Down (2013), the singer-songwriter has cultivated a distinctive emotional clarity, pairing raw, piano-driven compositions with a vocal delivery that oscillates between fragility and fervour. Henham Park will create the perfect backdrop for his moving performance.
Our Obelisk Arena’s prestigious Sunday afternoon slot this year is occupied by Alex James’ Britpop Classical, which, as the name suggests, is a classical retelling of our favourite Britpop hits from Britpop’s biggest including Blur, Oasis, Pulp and more. Prepare for a sense of enormous wellbeing…
Across our stages, we are set to be joined by some of the most exciting and brightest talent in music today. We are thrilled to welcome legendary singer-songwriter Billy Ocean to Henham Park, accompanied by his timeless soul and R&B classics.
Post-punk ensemble Dry Cleaning bring their deadpan lyrics that turn an everyday observation into a hypnotic, artful commentary, and the Mercury Prize-winning English Teacher will return with their unique indie-rock infused sounds. Alice Phoebe Lou brings her hauntingly intimate vocals and cinematic, soulful introspection.
American songwriter Kevin Morby brings his introspective folk-rock, while singer-songwriter and pianist Vanessa Carlton’s emotive pop power-ballads are sure to leave crowds willing to walk a thousand miles for. Florence Road channel grunge-infused indie rock into anthems of youthful unrest, while Bristol duo Getdown Services pair disco-rock grooves with wry British humour. The brooding textures of Ireland’s Just Mustard deliver a haunting mix of shoegaze and post-punk, contrasting with Keo, an alt-rock outfit from London with an intensity and depth that evokes both nostalgia and urgency. Manchester’s Westside Cowboy return to Latitude with their self-coined sound of “Britainicana” – a raw mix of lo-fi rock, country twang, and punk spirit.
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…
