It’s back! Every May, Brighton turns into a city-wide new music stage – and The Great Escape Festival sits at the heart of it!
Widely known as “the festival for new music,” this four-day event showcases hundreds of emerging artists across a network of venues, from seafront clubs to intimate bars and pop-up stages.
2026 marks the event’s 20th anniversary with an especially expansive programme, featuring over 450 up-and-coming acts from around the world performing across more than 30 walkable venues. The line-up spans the genres – indie, pop, hip-hop, rock, electronic and beyond, with artists at the start of their career sharing stages with established names in spotlight shows. As usual, it’s going to be EPIC!
