Stowaway Festival Announces Massive Phase 2 Line-Up Drop for 2026

Hold onto your glitter and grab your dancing shoes, because things have just got very interesting at Stowaway. We’ve been teasing, you’ve been guessing, and the wait is finally over: Phase 2 of the lineup is here, and it’s an absolute monster.

We’re talking over 40 brand-new artists joining the party, transforming the woods into a sonic playground that’s bursting at the seams with talent. From soulful grooves to thumping house and leftfield beats, this update completely flips the switch on what’s set to be a truly unforgettable weekend.

The Beats Get Bigger

Heads will turn for this one. We are beyond thrilled to welcome the incredible Kokoroko to the Stowaway stage. Their spiritual, London-born jazz is the perfect soundtrack for a sun-dappled afternoon in the trees. Joining them in the new additions are dance music heavyweights Ewan McVicar, and a back-to-back set from the legendary Eris Drew b2b Gallegos and Coco María that promises to be pure euphoria.

They’ll be linking arms with previously announced favourites like Nightmares on Wax, Say She She, Skream, and Emma-Jean Thackray to create a musical journey that spans the entire weekend.

Hospitality in the Woods

We’re also absolutely buzzing to announce that the legendary Hospitality crew is bringing a massive slice of their world-renowned party to Stowaway. Taking over The Shake Off for a full-blown takeover, get ready for a masterclass in drum & bass featuring the iconic London Elektricity, alongside Lens, Nu:Tone, Makoto, Dynamite MC, Texas, and more. This is going to be one for the ravers.

It’s More Than Just Music…

But here’s the thing about Stowaway—it’s never just about the lineup. It’s about the moments you don’t see coming. And for 2026, we’ve curated a whole host of incredible experiences that are going to live long in the memory.

Let the Games Begin!
Our friends from Dance Off! are back, and they’re bringing the heat. 2026 marks the triumphant return of the ultimate Dance Battle. Whether you’ve got the moves like Jagger or your signature dance is more “stuck in a lift,” this is your moment. Expect epic contests, ridiculous prizes, and a whole lot of laughter.

Good Vibes Only with The Reggae Choir
Prepare to have your soul lifted by the UK’s #1 Reggae singing ensemble. The Reggae Choir is more than just a performance; it’s a full-on community hug. Their harmonies are pure sunshine, guaranteed to bring everyone together. And if you haven’t seen their viral proposal video yet… well, just bring tissues.

Family Fun with Katy and The Music Machine!
Stowaway is for everyone, and we’ve got the ultimate family experience lined up. Katy and The Music Machine is a live funk and soul spectacular fronted by former CBeebies’ presenter Katy Ashworth. It’s a six-piece band, interactive games, prizes, and pure joy for the little ones (and the big kids, too!).

Grab the Mic: Hip Hop Karaoke
Always dreamed of being the star of the show? Hip Hop Karaoke puts you centre stage. With a live DJ, a thumping sound system, and a crowd ready to erupt, you pick the track—from golden era classics to modern bangers—grab the mic, and shake the room.

Party Like It’s 1999 with TV Party Tonight
And for the ultimate nostalgia trip, we’re bringing you TV Party Tonight. This is your favourite TV moments, flipped into a full-blown dance party. Think 90s intros, reality TV bangers, cult theme-tune remixes, and singalong anthems. If you grew up quoting it, they’re playing it.

This is just the tip of the iceberg. With a Phase 2 drop this size, you can bet there are more surprises up our sleeves.

Don’t sleep on this. Tickets are moving, and you won’t want to miss your slice of the action.
