John Newman and Rudimental DJ sets announced for Silverstone’s 2026 Grand Prix afterparty
The DJ lineup for 2026 Formula 1 British Grand Prix's famous T1 afterparty has been unveiled.
Silverstone has unveiled the DJ lineup for its hugely popular T1 afterparty, returning for the 2026 Formula 1 British Grand Prix from July 2 to 5.
The four‑night programme will once again run alongside the race weekend, offering fans a packed schedule of late‑night entertainment.
The party begins on Thursday with John Newman, who will open the series with a hybrid DJ and live vocal set. Friday hands the decks to Rudimental, bringing their trademark drum‑and‑bass energy to the circuit. Pendulum take over on Saturday, delivering their signature blend of electronic and rock, before global house favourite MK closes the weekend on Sunday with a set of crowd‑pleasing dance anthems.
Newman shared his excitement about joining the bill, saying he’s “a huge fan of Formula 1, Silverstone and music,” and is looking forward to performing for race‑goers.
Last year’s British Grand Prix drew a record 500,000 attendees, and Silverstone is aiming even higher for 2026. The T1 announcement follows confirmation that David Guetta will headline the Main Stage on Thursday night, with more artists still to be revealed as part of an expanded four‑day entertainment schedule.
Nick Read, Silverstone’s Chief Commercial Officer, said the T1 stage remains central to the venue’s growing music offering. He described the newly announced lineup as “legendary,” promising another standout weekend for fans.
Tickets for the official afterparty are now on sale, giving visitors the chance to extend their Grand Prix celebrations into the night. Fans can also upgrade to T1 VIP access, which includes a dedicated bar and premium viewing area, or book a VIP table with champagne, table service and personal hosts.
Tickets for the 2026 Formula 1 British Grand Prix are available here.
