SXSW is returning to London at the start of the summer, marking its sophomore year in the capital, and now all the musical acts have been announced for the 2026 bill.
Rachel Chinouriri, Earl Sweatshirt, Pete Tong, DJ AG, Giles Peterson, and Shame are among the names playing at the event this year, which takes place on June 1 – 6 in Shoreditch.
Last year saw the festival make its debut in the capital, though the festival actually began in Austin, Texas, back in 1987. It started solely as a music event, though it’s now a festival that incorporates multiple areas of art and technology.
Alongside the music in London, there will be talks, workshops, conferences, and more activities taking place across each day of the event. Those attending for the artists performing can purchase either a day wristband, or a full festival access wristband, which will allow them to see all the artists performing at SXSW London.
