We Out Here Festival has expanded its 2026 lineup with 26 new additions, further strengthening its genre-spanning identity ahead of its return to Wimborne St Giles, Dorset from 20th - 23rd August, 2026. With tickets now on sale, the beloved UK festival continues to blend jazz, soul, hip hop and electronic music across one of Europe’s most diverse outdoor programmes.

Leading the latest announcement are Thundercat and Peven Everett, two artists whose boundary-pushing sounds align perfectly with the festival’s ethos. They join an already rich lineup featuring Arthur Verocai with Nu Civilisation Orchestra, Mulatu Astatke, Stereolab and Joy Crookes, alongside rising names and global underground talent.

The new wave of acts deepens the festival’s sonic palette, with highlights including Steam Down, Channel One, Ivy Lab and Trojan Sound System. From live instrumentation to heavyweight soundsystem culture, the additions reinforce We Out Here’s reputation for curating immersive musical journeys that move seamlessly between eras and styles.

Further names such as Oscar Jerome, Tom Skinner, Audrey Powne and Greentea Selecta add to the festival’s forward-thinking edge, while organisers have teased that more DJ and electronic artists are still to be revealed. With its community-driven atmosphere and ever-evolving lineup, We Out Here Festival 2026 is shaping up to be one of the summer’s most essential gatherings.
