Y Not Festival announces 2026 headliners and first wave of acts
The Libertines, Reytons, Two Door Cinema Club, and The Streets are set for Y Not Festival 2026.
Y Not Festival has unveiled its first wave of performers for 2026, promising one of its biggest lineups to date.
The 19th edition of the beloved Derbyshire event will return from July 30 to August 2, bringing four days of live music to the Peak District.
Kicking off the celebrations on Thursday night are indie icons The Libertines, whose set is expected to set the tone for a weekend packed with anthems. From Friday onwards, the main stage will be dominated by a trio of heavyweight headliners: Reytons, Two Door Cinema Club, and The Streets.
The announcement also confirmed a strong supporting cast across the weekend. Festival favourites Kaiser Chiefs and The Vaccines will deliver their trademark singalong choruses, while Happy Mondays bring a dose of Manchester’s legendary baggy sound.
Pop star Sophie Ellis-Bextor, fresh from her resurgence with Murder on the Dancefloor, adds a disco edge to the line-up. Rising names such as The Royston Club and Keo will showcase the next generation of talent, alongside established crowd-pleasers Scouting For Girls, Ash, and Reverend And The Makers.
Presale begins at 10am on Friday (28.11.25), followed by general sale at 10am on Saturday (29.11.25). Head to www.ynotfestival.com for ticket information.
