While the only bank holidays we have left this year aren’t coming until Christmas, we can still start pining for the glorious long weekends set to come in the middle of next year. If we turn our attention specifically towards the late-May bank holiday, we now have a bedazzling lineup from Cross The Tracks festival to look forward to.
Returning to Brockwell Park for its 2026 edition on Sunday, May 24, Cross The Tracks has outdone itself with a spectacular announcement that sees Little Simz topping the bill at the event next year. She’ll close proceedings on the mainstage of the festival, with the news coming on the heels of her biggest headline show over at the O2 arena earlier this month – and the festival calling Little Simz their ‘most-requested headliner to date’!
Elsewhere on today’s (October 29) announcement, you’ll see the likes of: KOKOROKO, Obongjayar, Lady Wray, Brooke Combe, Bricknasty, Bel Cobain, Sholto, The Womack Sisters, Channel One, Reeko, Sonnyjim & Goya Gumbani w /Franky Bones Ensemble, 2fox (live), and ZENA. These arts
All these artists (plus Little Simz at the summit of the bill) make up Cross The Tracks 2026 so far, but be sure to look out for more names added to the lineup in the coming months, as this is only the first wave!
