New World Festival has confirmed its return for 2026, with organisers locking in 30th August, 2026 for its comeback edition in Chelmsford, England. The one-day dance music event last took place in 2024 and quickly established itself as a heavyweight fixture on the UK summer calendar, drawing thousands of fans for a genre-spanning celebration of house, drum and bass, garage and bassline.

The 2024 edition delivered a sprawling lineup that reflected the breadth of UK dance culture, featuring headline appearances from Andy C, Sub Focus, Dimension, DJ EZ, Example, Sammy Virji and Sam Divine. Drum and bass powerhouses A.M.C + Phantom, K Motionz and Koven shared the bill with house favourites including Roger Sanchez, Todd Terry, Richy Ahmed and Martin Ikin, while a strong garage presence came courtesy of Artful Dodger and Matt Jam Lamont + PSG.

With its multi-stage format and a reputation for high-energy production, New World Festival carved out a distinctive identity in Essex’s competitive festival landscape. The 2026 date announcement signals a renewed push after a year away, giving fans ample time to plan for the late-summer bank holiday weekend gathering.
