Over 150 artists are set to perform over the one day festival, with 80 new acts announced this morning.
After releasing Pale Waves as their headliner only a few short months ago, Live At Leeds: In The City has been teasing us with their lineup for a good while now- and it's certainly been worth the wait.
After first joining the festival in 2015, Sundara Karma are back to bring guitar riffs aplenty and push the boundaries of what we know and love about indie-pop music. Meanwhile White Lies will be celebrating a career of 'finding euphoria in the darkest of moments' and bringing old favourites and new tracks from As I Try Not To Fall Apart too.
Now joining the likes of Palace, Thomas Headon, Working Men's Club and Sea Power on Saturday 15 October 2022, you'll find a whopping 80 new names added to the bill- and they'll all be playing as day turns to night right here in the city centre.

The Kooks, Miles Kane and Milburn to open Rock n Roll Circus as the festival expands to four days
Just when it you thought that the Rock N Roll Circus Sheffield line-up was complete, organisers have confirmed a major expansion for 2026.
That's right, the festival will now open a day earlier on Thursday 27 August.
The brand-new opening night will be led by The Kooks, Milburn and Miles Kane - this is going to be a bank holiday weekend you'll never forget.
Further artists for Thursday 27 August - and across the entire four-day weekend - will be announced in the coming weeks, so keep your eyes peeled.
It's a welcome addition to what was already shaping up to be one of the standout festival weekends of the summer.

Friday will see The Streets headline with a special performance of A Grand Don’t Come For Free in full. Saturday will be led by one of the UK’s most exciting modern guitar bands, Wunderhorse, supported by Baxter Dury, Mercury Prize winners English Teacher, and London favourites Fat Dog, whilst Sunday will be closed by the one and only Richard Ashcroft.
Festival Director Ali O’Reilly said:“Opening the weekend with The Kooks performing Inside In / Inside Out in full, Milburn returning home and Miles Kane joining the bill feels like a statement night for Sheffield.
“What makes Rock N Roll Circus special is that we can celebrate iconic albums and artists that shaped a generation, while also giving space to the next wave of talent coming through. That mix of heritage and hometown pride is exactly what this festival is about.
“Sheffield has always brought an incredible atmosphere to Don Valley Bowl, and expanding the programme this way gives us even more room to create something memorable for the Bank Holiday weekend.”
Rock N Roll Circus Sheffield takes place at Don Valley Bowl from Thursday 27 to Sunday 30 August 2026, and you can get your tickets here.
