Christopher BarrettFestival Republic has announced a heavyweight lineup for the 20th edition of Latitude Festival, including a UK festival exclusive appearance by David Byrne.
Lewis Capaldi, Teddy Swims, The Flaming Lips, The Last Dinner Party, Wet Leg, Self Esteem, Billy Ocean, English Teacher and Alex James are among the many confirmed artists set to perform at the 45,000-capacity event at Henham Park, Suffolk, from 23-26 July 2026.
Latitude’s headline sponsor, Klarna has launched a 48-hour early on-sale via Ticketmaster today for new and existing users of the payment service.
“Twenty years of Latitude feels like both a moment and a lifetime,” said Latitude founder and Festival Republic MD Melvin Benn. “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.”
