Tramlines Line-Up Revealed Following HUGE Demand Newport Road, North Cave,

Tramlines Festival has confirmed the first wave of artists set to perform at Hillsborough Park from 24 to 26 July 2026. Headliners Fatboy Slim (Friday), Courteeners (Saturday) and Wolf Alice (Sunday) are joined by Kaiser Chiefs (Friday) Blossoms (Saturday) and Wet Leg (Sunday), with additional performances from Gabrielle, Lottery Winners, Rick Astley, Reverend and the Makers, The K’s, The Vaccines, Vanessa Carlton, The Enemy, The Everly Pregnant Brothers and a disco hosted by Day Fever. This announcement follows record-breaking demand for tickets with over 20,000 fans signed up for early access to the pre-sale. More than two-thirds of all tickets have already been sold,

marking the fastest sales in the festival’s history and putting Tramlines on track for an early sell-out. Pre-sale tickets go live from 6pm on Thursday 27 November. Friday sets the tone for a huge weekend, with Fatboy Slim bringing his legendary big-beat energy to the Tramlines main stage for his first major outdoor festival performance in Sheffield. With era-defining tracks like “Praise You” and “Right Here, Right Now”, the Brighton-born icon promises a sensational start to the festival. Supporting on Friday are Kaiser Chiefs, back with a bag of indie anthems and festival-sized choruses. The rest of the day will feature The Vaccines, rising live favourites The K’s, and a Tramlines debut

for Vanessa Carlton. Saturday sees Courteeners headline, closing out the night with the kind of set that’s earned them a cult-like following across the UK. Their return is one of the most requested by Tramlines fans, promising big singalongs and even bigger crowds. Blossoms play in the supporting slot, bringing with them a Mercury Prize nomination and an ever-growing list of festival anthems. They’re joined by Rick Astley, still riding high from a critically acclaimed second act and viral collaborations with everyone from Foo Fighters to Blossoms themselves. Gabrielle and Everly Pregnant Brothers add extra depth to the day’s line-up. Meanwhile, Day Fever bring their wildly popular daytime disco experience to

Hillsborough Park for the first time. Founded in early 2024 by actress Vicky McClure, filmmaker Jonny Owen, and Reverend & the Makers’ frontman Jon McClure, the Day Fever takeover is all about fun and floor-fillers, reimagining the club scene for the daytime dance crowd. Sunday closes with Wolf Alice, one of the UK’s most exciting live bands. Known for their Mercury Prize-winning mix of grunge, alt-rock and haunting ballads, their set is set to be a standout moment in Tramlines history. They’re joined by Wet Leg, whose rapid rise and off-kilter pop brilliance has made them a major festival draw. Sheffield favourites Reverend and the Makers return, alongside The

Enemy and the ever-joyful Lottery Winners, rounding off the weekend with heart, swagger and plenty to sing about. In the run-up to the announcement, Tramlines rolled out a tonguein-cheek, ‘Spill the Beans’, teaser campaign. Hundreds across the UK received specially branded tins of beans in the post, each featuring the name of a 2026 artist ahead of the official reveal. Fans were also invited to donate food to the S6 Foodbank in Hillsborough on Friday 21 November, where anyone making a contribution received one of the limited-edition tins in return.
