Maribou State have announced they will be headlining LIDO Festival 2026, on Saturday 20th June alongside a full lineup (yet to be released).

The second edition of London’s acclaimed sustainable music festival returns to Victoria Park following its successful debut in June of this year. Tickets will go on general sale from Friday, 24 October at 10am.

2025 welcomed culture-shaping artists Massive Attack, Jamie XX, London Grammar and Charli XCX to headline. In fact, it was Charli XCX’s long-overdue first UK headline festival slot.

The lineup was eclectic and blended global stars with rising talent. However, LIDO Festival aims not to just be about the music. Their midweek programme In the neighbourhood provided free arts and wellbeing activities for the local community.

Maribou State are the first artists to be announced for LIDO Festival 2026. The Hertfordshire-born duo have spent more than a decade establishing themselves as major players in the global dance music scene.

Their blissful genre-fluid soundscapes, which merge organic instrumentation, grooves and atmospheric textures, have earned critical success across three studio albums.

Maribou State headlined three nights at Alexandra Palace in support of their long-anticipated record, Hallucinating Love. This tour also saw them notably play Glastonbury and Sydney Opera House.

Reflecting on their recent tour, the band explained:

“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.”

Stay tuned to hear about the next wave of artists, and grab your tickets while you can.

Early tickets are on sale now.
