SUMMARY:The Great Escape
DESCRIPTION:Get TicketsAccommodationTravel Info\nThe Great Escape Festival 2026 lights up Brighton\, England from 13 – 16 May 2026\, transforming the seaside city into the UK’s biggest new-music takeover. Across three sun-splashed days and late nights\, more than 450 artists from around the world will perform in 30+ venues — from seafront clubs and historic theatres to hidden basement bars and beach pop-ups — creating a buzzing showcase of discovery right by the sea. \nSince its debut in 2006\, The Great Escape has become the industry’s essential tastemaker festival\, where future headliners cut their teeth and crowds roam between gigs with a pint and a plan. It’s part city-crawl\, part summer party — you might watch a breakout indie band in a tiny pub at noon\, catch an avant-pop act on the pier at sunset\, then close out the night with a surprise DJ set on the beach. The atmosphere is electric: Brighton’s lanes hum with live music\, food stalls\, and the kind of optimism that only comes from hearing something brand new for the first time. \nThe festival’s legacy of alumni is legendary. Past editions have hosted early performances from artists who went on to dominate global stages — think Adele\, Stormzy\, Foals\, Arctic Monkeys\, Lewis Capaldi\, MØ\, Sam Fender\, Wolf Alice\, Fontaines D.C.\, Little Simz\, and Celeste. In recent years\, crowds were treated to 2025 standouts like Rachel Chinouriri\, English Teacher\, Tom Rasmussen\, Venbee\, The Last Dinner Party\, NewDad\, and Deadletter\, proving that The Great Escape continues to be where tomorrow’s headliners are found first. \nBeyond the gigs\, the TGE Conference brings together music-industry insiders for panels\, workshops and networking sessions that shape the next wave of talent and innovation. Add pop-up record stores\, film screenings\, and beach-front hangouts\, and it’s easy to see why The Great Escape remains the UK’s most influential showcase festival. Affordable accommodation and direct trains from London make it effortless to join the pilgrimage — just pack comfortable shoes\, an open mind\, and get ready to discover your next favourite artist by the sea. \n\nThe Great Escape 2025 Lineup\nLineup to be announced soon: \n2025 LineupAaron Rowe / Abdomen / Acopia / Aggrasoppar / Ahmed\, With Love. / Alix Fernz / Allie Sherlock / Angry Blackmen / Annie DiRusso / Aqyila / Armlock / Ashaine White / Astral Bakers / Basht. / Becky And The Birds / Beddy Rays / Betty / Billianne / Bishopskin / Black Fondu / Blood Wizard / Bold Love / Bottle Rockets / Bradley Marshall / Bria Salmena / Brògeal / Callinsick / Canblaster / Catty / Chameleon Lime Whoopiepie / Chloe Qisha / Chloe Slater / Citizen Papes / CJ Wiley / Clara Kimera / Clara Mann / Cliffords / Common Goldfish / Corto.Alto / Curtisy / Daffo / Declan O’Donovan / Dice / Disgusting Sisters / Donny Benét / Drax Project / Dug / Dump Babes / Eggy / Eivør / Elinborg / Ellie O’Neill / Enji / Evan Williams / Field Guide / Flawless Issues / Folk Bitch Trio / Fuzz Lightyear / Gans / Gauci / GeminiCrab (Malika Tirolien & Caulder Nash) / George Bloomfield / Gloin / Goodbye / Goodbye Karelle / Green Star / Grimelda / Gus Tiramani / Hachiku / Harry Strange / Heavy Lungs / HotWax / Hungry / Indoor Foxes / James Emmanuel / Jazzygold / JD Cliffe / Jessy Blakemore / Jo Hill / Jools / Jordan Adetunji / Jordi Alkema / Junior Brother / Kaicrewsade / Keo / Kita Alexander / Knives / Konyikeh / L E M F R E C K / Ladylike / Laundromat Chicks / Lola Moxom / Loshh / Luvcat / Lynks / Maïcee / Makeshift Art Bar / Man/Woman/Chainsaw / Marysia Osu / Max Baby / Mên An Tol / Miss Kaninna / Mitch Sanders / Moio / Mount Palomar / Mudi Sama / Muroki / Nadia Kadek / Naduh / Namesbliss / Nancy Williams / Nap Eyes / Nectar Woode / No Cigar / Odhran Murphy / Oreglo / Pageant Mum / Pamela / Park National / Patche / Pem / Peter Xan / Punchbag / Queen Cult / Rabbitfoot / Raelle / Ragnar Finsson / Ray Bull / Real Farmer / Redd. / Route 500 / Rubii / Saïna / Sam Tudor / Sebastian Gaskin / Sex Mask / Shortstraw. / Silver Gore / Silvurdrongur / Sirens Of Lesbos / Sly Withers / South Summit / Stella Bridie / Sunday (1994) / Talk Show / Tamara Mneney / Tara Nome Doyle / The Jins / The K’s / The Klittens / The Moonlandingz / The New Eves / The Orchestra (For Now) / The Pill / The Slow Country / The Stingrays / Tia Gostelow / Tjaka / Total Tommy / Traams / Trampolene / TTSSFU / Twenty One Children / Van Zon / Vona Vella / Warmduscher / Wayside / Westside Cowboy / Witch Post / Yasmin Coe / Yes And Maybe / Yoko Gold / Yoshika Colwell / Zimmer90The Great Escape 2025 Tickets\nTickets\nThe Great Escapevia Ticketmaster \nBookAccommodation\nThe city of Brighton offers a wide range of accommodation options.
