Description
Enter our BALLOT now for a chance to win tickets for your household to Shambala Festival 2026!
Drop the outside world at the gates and dive into four days of Adventures in Utopia… Shambala is the UK’s most fiercely independent, seriously silly, wildly creative and radically sustainable festival.
Held on the August Bank Holiday weekend, and with 30+ unique venues to explore, we’ll be packing more genre-busting sounds, wild Shambalan spirit, and bonkers participatory brilliance into 4 days than you ever imagined possible.
More hands-on workshops than ever? Check. Unforgettable musical discoveries? You bet. Community celebrations? Absolutely. Unexpected moments that shake up your senses? Every single day.
💥 SHAMBALA 2026 LINE-UP SO FAR (A-Z) 💥
BCUC, Big Sleep, Bob Vylan, Dogshow, Dr Meaker, Dub Colossus, Goat, Grace Petrie, Grove, Hollie Cook, Joshua Idehen, Los Bitchos, The Menstrual Cramps, Night Tapes, Orchestra Baobab, Penguin Cafe, Prima Queen, Reggie Watts & CAPYAC + many, many more!
