Latitude Festival 2027: Music, Arts and Imagination in Suffolk

Latitude Festival 2027 returns to the beautiful grounds of Henham Park for its 21st edition, creating a colourful countryside world where music, comedy, theatre, literature and family adventure meet. Set among woodland, rolling lawns and a shimmering lake, Latitude offers four days of discovery in one of the United Kingdom’s most enchanting festival landscapes.

Founded by festival director Melvin Benn in 2006, Latitude established its multi-arts identity from the very beginning. Its inaugural edition combined headline performances from Snow Patrol, Antony and the Johnsons and Mogwai with comedy, poetry, theatre, cabaret and a dedicated children’s programme. That ambitious mix has since transformed Latitude into a cultural institution with an atmosphere rooted in curiosity, inclusivity and creative freedom.

The official 2027 line-up has yet to be announced, but visitors can expect another genre-spanning music programme alongside leading comedians, authors, poets, dancers, actors and cultural voices. Major performances traditionally unfold on the Obelisk Arena, while smaller stages, woodland spaces and intimate venues encourage unexpected discoveries. Once darkness settles over Henham Park, DJ sets, cabaret, singalongs and late-night parties keep the site alive.

The festival’s picturesque lake remains one of its defining landmarks. When scheduled and conditions allow, visitors can take part in guided swimming, paddleboarding and paddleboard yoga or enjoy a peaceful journey aboard a Venetian-inspired punt. Around the water, theatrical performances, installations and spontaneous spectacles add to Latitude’s dreamlike character.

Families are welcomed throughout the site, with dedicated areas offering creative workshops, science activities, outdoor adventures and age-appropriate performances. Food traders serve international street food, regional produce and vegetarian and vegan choices, while bars and relaxed lakeside spaces provide plenty of opportunities to pause between shows.

Weekend tickets include standard camping, with a separate Family Campsite available to groups travelling with children or teenagers. Pink Moon Boutique Village offers pre-pitched tents, luxury bell tents and upgraded facilities, while Latitude Luxury provides premium cabins, Bell Houses and en-suite accommodation. Festival admission must be purchased separately from luxury accommodation.

Henham Park is accessible by organised coach services from several cities, and festival shuttle connections traditionally operate from nearby transport hubs. Travelling by public transport is encouraged as part of Latitude’s environmental commitments.

With its unique balance of headline entertainment, artistic discovery and natural beauty, Latitude Festival 2027 promises another joyful escape where every woodland path leads to a new experience.
