Big Feastival revealed its headliners for next summer today with news that Basement Jaxx, The Streets and Bastille will be kicking off the August Bank Holiday weekend at Alex James‘ farm.
Basement Jaxx, one of dance music’s biggest acts, bring their electrifying set to the main stage on Friday August 28 with their inimitable mix of house, big beat and electronic pop. Expect global anthems including Rendez-Vu, Romeo and Where’s Your Head At, as the BRIT and GRAMMY award-winner’s trademark fusion of club culture and festival spectacle guarantees an adrenaline fuelled night.
On Saturday (August 29), British music icon The Streets takes the spotlight – Mike Skinner performing the era defining ‘A Grand Don’t Come for Free’ album in full, having spawned hit singles Fit But Don’t You Know It, Blinded by the Lights and Dry Your Eyes, amongst others. With platinum records, multiple BRIT nominations and a legacy that lives on, Skinner’s live performances remain as sharp as ever.
Closing the festival on Sunday (August 30), indie pop favourites Bastille will deliver an epic finale. Since forming in 2010, the band have built a formidable catalogue of hits, from their debut No1 album ‘Bad Blood’ and global smash Pompeii, to countless festival anthems. 15 years on, they’ve sold over 11 million records worldwide and will be a massive pull to Big Feastival fans.
Alex James, who hosts Big Feastival on his Kingham Farm every year, says: “Our 2026 edition promises to be the best yet – the perfect way to bring the Summer Holidays to a grandstand finale. Big Feastival brings the very best music, food, and family entertainment together across the August Bank Holiday weekend so I’m delighted to welcome everyone back to the farm for the 15th year of Big Feastival, and to confirm our three outstanding headliners. “
Event Director, Heather Garrett said: “We’ve been working away behind the scenes to launch with a bang for 2026 and have so many exciting things planned. We can’t wait to reveal more in the coming weeks! Stay tuned for further line-up announcements.”
Alongside the brilliant music moments, Big Feastival 2026 will once again serve up foodie feasts, fantastic comedy, theatre and kids’ shows, with an exciting culinary line-up of renowned chefs taking to the Big Kitchen stage, a full programme of family-friendly fun and an all-star mix of podcasts, comedy and late-night sets from superstar DJs in the legendary Cheese Hub and The Outpost.
