House music festivals in the UK 2026

UK house music festivals in 2026 run from intimate underground weekenders to festival-sized fields. June and July are the peak months - 51st State (Barking), GALA (London), Mint Festival (Leeds), We Out Here and Junction 2 fill the summer. Creamfields and Parklife carry the biggest crowds; Houghton Festival, Freerotation and Love to Be hold down the deeper, more underground end. Terminal V extends the season into October in Scotland. Filter by month, region and size to find your crowd.

Fezzy tracks house music festivals across the UK in 2026. AVA Festival at Titanic Quarter in Belfast is the standout electronic event on the circuit, covering techno, house and experimental music across one of the most distinctive venues in the UK. Ground Rules Festival in the West Midlands doubles up with drum and bass on the same bill. Hide & Seek Festival, NOTSILLY Weekender and Wild Wood fill out the boutique end of the circuit, with Thump Festival in Wiltshire rounding out the regional spread. Use the region filter to find what is within reach.
