The newest highlight on London’s summer calendar, LIDO Festival, has today unveiled its highly anticipated first 2026 headliner: Maribou State will headline on Saturday 20 June alongside a full line-up to be announced. 

The second edition of London’s acclaimed sustainable music festival returns to Victoria Park in 2026 following its successful debut in June of this year.

Maribou State – “We’ve made some of our best memories touring in London, from our first ever show at Oslo through to playing Alexandra Palace earlier this year. We’re over the moon to announce our biggest show yet in the city next summer, alongside a line up of some of our favourite artists. This is going to be special. See you all next June.”

Jim King, CEO of AEG Presents UK and European Festivals – “LIDO’s first year was an incredible moment for London with exceptional performances, a perfect setting in Victoria Park and a real step forward in how we can deliver live music more sustainably. We’re excited to build on that success and return in 2026. We’re delighted to welcome Maribou State as our first headliner to set the tone for what’s to come… unforgettable live shows with world-class artists, and a festival that truly feels like summer in the city.”
