Alongside the musical additions, the festival has detailed its full non-musical programming.

The comedy lineup includes appearances from Jamali Maddix, Pierre Novellie, and Rachel Fairburn.
For younger attendees, the family area features a Shrek tribute band named The Ogretones, children’s mosh pits courtesy of The Backhand Jags, Drag Queen Story Hour, yoga, and forest school activities.
The festival’s silent disco will host live sets from Thrill Collins, Battlesnake, Haggard Cat, and Frozemode, alongside guest DJ sets from Liam of Cancer Bats and the On Wednesdays We Wear Black podcast team.
Organizers have also named 2000memes as the official fancy dress theme for 2026, encouraging attendees to bring digital culture into the live festival environment. This year’s official charity partners include Tree Aid, Attitude Is Everything, Metal For Good, and Heads Above The Waves.
