All Points East 2026

East London summer wouldn’t feel complete without All Points East, and this year’s line-up is shaping up to be one of its strongest yet

Returning to Victoria Park this August, the festival has just dropped another wave of names joining co-headliners Jorja Smith and Tems – and it’s packed with talent.

The newly announced acts bring together some of the most exciting names across R&B, rap, dance and soul. From the genre-blurring energy of Nia Archives to the smooth vocals of Elmiene performing alongside The Sunday Service Choir, the Friday line-up already feels like one of the standout nights of the summer. Add in cult rap heavyweight Westside Gunn, amapiano superstar Uncle Waffles and UK garage legend DJ EZ, and there’s a real sense that this is going to be one of those “you had to be there” festival days.

There’s also a huge amount of homegrown talent on the bill, with Wesley Joseph, Sekou and Bellah all adding to the mix, alongside previously announced artists Ayra Starr, Odeal and kwn.

And honestly, there’s something special about All Points East. It’s been a staple of London festival season for years now, consistently pulling together line-ups that feel current, exciting and genuinely fun. Whether you’re there for the big headline moments or discovering your next favourite artist on a sunny evening in the park, it always delivers the kind of atmosphere people talk about long after summer ends.

With Lorde, Pink PantheressTyler, The Creator, Twenty One Pilots and Deftones also headlining across the festival weekends, 2026 is looking seriously strong already — and we can’t wait to be back in Victoria Park for it.
