The massive first line-up drop for Boomtown 2026 is here.
The newly-expanded Matterley Estate fest – which will go by the name Chapter 5: Radical Redesign – will feature the likes of Kneecap, Scissor Sisters, Madness, Skrillex, Four Tet, Faithless, Scooter, Shaggy, Ashnikko, Skindred, High Vis and loads more.
“Musically, while bass music has dominated in recent years and will always be at our core, we’re making a conscious move to keep Boomtown musically diverse and unpredictable,” reveals festival co-founder Luke Mitchell. “Expect more live bands and more cross-genre adventures. That’s where Boomtown began, and it’s what keeps us on the truest path forward.”
Boomtown 2026 takes place from Wednesday, August 12 – Sunday, August 16.
