Lakefest has confirmed its third major headliner for 2026 — and as many fans had already guessed, it’s The Charlatans.
The iconic indie band, known for era-defining hits including The Only One I Know, How High and One to Another, will take to the stage at Eastnor Castle next summer. They’re also set to perform new material from their latest album, We Are Love, promising a set filled with signature swagger, feel-good energy and festival-ready anthems.
The announcement adds to the growing excitement around Lakefest 2026, which organisers say will once again offer more than just music. The festival will feature a packed programme of family entertainment, hundreds of children’s activities, diverse food options and a relaxed atmosphere across the scenic grounds of Eastnor Castle.
Festival-goers are being urged to secure tickets soon, with Early Bird prices set to rise in the coming weeks. Tickets can also be purchased through Klarna, allowing fans to spread the cost in instalments.
Lakefest returns in 2026 with the promise of another unforgettable weekend of music, family fun and summer vibes.
