Rockaway Beach 2026 let’s go!!!!

🚨 Surprise headliner announcement! 🚨 Tickets: https://bit.ly/Rockaway26

If you tune into Glastonbury Festivals, you'll be able to catch our second of three headliners for 2026... English Teacher!!! We're very pleased to announce the reigning Mercury Prize-winners will be joining us in January.

Their debut album 'This Could Be Texas' has blown the doors wide open - smart, sharp, searing alt-rock laced with northern wit and noise. From sold-out US shows, to Jools Holland, to the biggest stages going... they’ve arrived. Catch them by the sea, before they take off into the stars.

We're very excited to also announce the incredible Low Harness, Mandrake Handshake, and Whitelands joining the crew.

We're welcoming back a few favourites as well like Dom & John's Closing Party, a takeover from the heroic Hilary Skank, alongside artist Q&As, pub quizzes, silent discos, and other fun n' games. Much more to be announced too - alongside our third headliner and even more bands. On that point - we're planning to have more live acts playing in 2026 than we had in 2025 👊 So stay tuned.

Plus - even though it's not his birthday, the Bowie Bash is back, because when you're right you're right - and we missed it last time too!!!

And for those who are worried about how close our kick off is to New Years Eve this time... you'll be glad to know that we're hosting our very own belated NEW New Years Eve Party on the Friday night, with a countdown and some stupid surprises planned.
