The UK’s Latitude Festival is celebrating 20 years with a massive lineup headlined by American avant-garde pop star David Byrne.

The long running Latitude Festival takes place at Henham Park in Suffolk from 23-26 July 2026.

The Talking Heads founder will be performing on Friday evening, with R&B favourite Teddy Swims taking to the stage on Saturday night and Scottish funnyman Lewis Capaldi closing the festival on Sunday evening.

The bill also features performances from English musician Self Esteem, psych rockers The Flaming Lips, all-female powerhouse The Last Dinner Party, singer-songwriter Tom Grennan, piano crooner Tom Odell, indie party starters Wet Leg and many more. Check out the full lineup below.

It’s not just music that takes centre stage at Latitude, with comedy shows, live podcasts, theatre productions, literature readings and much more.

Speaking on the festival’s anniversary, Latitude Founder and Festival Director Melvin Benn says: “Twenty years of Latitude feels like both a moment and a lifetime. We've watched this festival grow from an ambitious idea into a cultural institution that has genuinely changed what people expect from a festival experience. This first lineup announcement celebrates everything Latitude has always stood for: fearless programming, artistic ambition, and that magical collision between discovery and legacy.

“With David Byrne playing an exclusive festival set, Teddy Swims bringing his soulful energy to the festival, and Lewis Capaldi returning after his courageous journey, alongside artists ranging from The Flaming Lips to The Last Dinner Party, this lineup tells the story of where we've been and where we're going.

“But Latitude has never been just about music. The past twenty years have been extraordinary, culturally, politically, and socially, and our yet-to-be-announced comedy, theatre, dance, poetry and literary programme will dive deep into the most important artists and moments that have shaped us all. I couldn't be prouder of what we've built together, and I can't wait to celebrate with everyone at Henham Park this July.”

Latitude Festival takes place at Henham Park in Suffolk from 23-26 July 2026. Ticketing information is available via latitudefestival.com.
