Tramlines has revealed its full 2026 line-up, following the biggest demand in the festival's history.
The beloved Sheffield music event will be back at Hillsborough Park next summer for its 17th year, and has teed up a bumper line-up of stars to perform this year.
Topping the bill on Friday will be legendary musician and DJ Fatboy Slim, who'll bring his legendary big-beat energy to the Tramlines main stage.
On Saturday, it'll be beloved Manc indie rockers Courteeners who'll close out the main stage - Tramlines say this has been one of their most-requested acts with their big singalong energy.
Then on Sunday, Wolf Alice will bring their Mercury-Prize-winning mix of grunge, alt-rock and haunting ballads to Sheffield.
Also topping the Tramlines 2026 line-up will be the likes of indie anthem kings Kaiser Chiefs, one of the UK's hottest live acts Blossoms, and off-kilter pop geniuses Wet Leg.
Tramlines 2026 will be welcoming to the bill Gabrielle, Lottery Winners, Rick Astley, Reverend and the Makers, The K’s, The Vaccines, Vanessa Carlton, The Enemy, and The Everly Pregnant Brothers, too.
And much-loved disco event Day Fever, a daytime rave for people who don't want a late night, will be popping up at Hillsborough Park too.

Tramlines has already experienced record-breaking demand for its 2026 festival, even before announcing the line-up, with more than 20,000 fans signed up for early access and more than two-thirds of tickets already sold.
In the run-up to the announcement, Tramlines rolled out a tongue-in-cheek, ‘Spill the Beans’, teaser campaign, delivering specially branded tins of beans in the post that teased the artists who would be performing.
Fans could also claim a tip-off tin by donating food to the S6 Foodbank in Hillsborough.
Tramlines will take place between Friday 24 and Sunday 26 July 2026.
Pre-sale tickets for Tramlines 2026 go live from 6pm on Thursday 27 November for those signed up via www.tramlines.org.uk, with general sale from 6pm on Friday 28 November HERE.

Smash-hit musical Everybody’s Talking About Jamie to return home to Sheffield on 10th anniversary tour
One of the most beloved musicals of the 21st century is set to return to Sheffield on its 10th anniversary tour.
Following a record-breaking three-year West End residency, two sold-out UK and Ireland Tours, and even an award-winning Amazon Studios film, the smash-hit musical Everybody’s Talking About Jamie is returning for its 10th anniversary tour, and will be stopping off here in its home town.
Set to open in Leeds a decade after the original opening at the Sheffield Crucible, Jamie will be ‘coming home again’ for what is said to be ‘possibly the last time’, as the show heads out to major cities across the UK.
Everybody’s Talking About Jamie tells the story of 16-year-old title character, Jamie, who lives on a council estate in Sheffield but doesn’t quite fit in and is terrified about the future, even though he wants to be a sensation.
Supported by his loving mum and surrounded by his friends, Jamie overcomes prejudice, beats the bullies, and steps out of the darkness into the spotlight.
With an original score of catchy pop tunes by lead singer-songwriter of The Feeling, Dan Gillespie Sells, and writer Tom MacRae, the musical is said to be one the whole family should experience.
This new 10th anniversary addition of the show coming to Sheffield even features a brand-new song to the already-beloved soundtrack.
Everybody’s Talking About Jamie will be coming to the Sheffield Lyceum Theatre on 8 March 2027, and will also be visiting other northern cities on the tour like Leeds, Chester, Sunderland, Manchester, and Liverpool, as well as other major cities nationwide.

The talented winner will also receive an official endorsement with Epiphone, one of the most iconic guitar brands in the world, a professional electric guitar, 12 months of artist relations support, access to Epiphone’s London showroom and a performance slot at the Gibson Garage.
And it doesn't stop there as they will also get £500 in studio credit from Pirate Studios and a slot at the This Feeling industry showcase.
Finalists will receive paid performance slots at Tramlines and a second artist will be chosen through a public vote from a shortlist of 100 entries. That artist will also receive the full Epiphone package and secure a guaranteed place in the final selection.
Timm Cleasby, Operations Director at Tramlines, said: “Apply to Play is one of the things at Tramlines I’m proudest of. Every year we get blown away by the talent coming through, not just from Sheffield but from all over the UK.
"We’ve had artists start out on a small stage and come back a couple of years later to play a packed tent. That kind of journey means a lot to us and shows emerging artists there is a pathway for them to grow. It’s why we do it and I can’t wait to see who steps up in 2026.”
