Boogietown returns on Saturday, July 11 for its fifth — and most ambitious — edition to date. This one-day explosion of disco, soul, funk, and feel-good dance once again transforms Surrey’s Apps Court Farm into the South East’s ultimate summer party, now with its largest-ever lineup and a newly expanded five-stage site. Tickets go on sale Friday, January 30 at 9am, following the full lineup reveal on Monday, January 26 at 6pm.
Set within the scenic riverside grounds of Apps Court Farm, just outside London, Boogietown blends legendary live performances, iconic DJs, and a laid-back open-air atmosphere — all within easy reach of the capital. It’s where seasoned groove lovers meet younger generations digging for authentic sounds across soul, disco, funk, and beyond.
New for 2026, the festival grows to five stages for the very first time, promising more music, more variety, and more discovery across genres. Away from the dancefloors, a dedicated Food Village will host a curated selection of street food traders serving up flavors from around the world throughout the day.
Headlining the Main Stage are some of the most influential names in global soul and disco. Gloria Gaynor, who performed at the very first Boogietown, returns as a fan favorite alongside Shalamar, Gabrielle, Earth, Wind & Fire by Al McKay, and Soul II Soul. Hosting duties will be handled by Jonny Meah and Nick Coulson.
Elsewhere on site, the Big Love Tent delivers crossover classics and high-energy sets from scene staples including Maxi Priest, Heather Small, Aswad, Sonique, Baby D, K-Klass, and Gok Wan. The Love Train keeps disco rolling all day with Brutus Gold Love Train, Boney M, Odyssey, and Heatwave.
The Funk & Soul Club gathers tastemakers and selectors such as Craig Charles Funk & Soul Club, Norman Jay, Dave Lee (JN), Jazzie B (DJ Set), Alison Limerick, and the Soul Boutique Collective. Meanwhile, the Boogie Bus delivers a disco and disco-house soundtrack courtesy of Sophie Warner, Gary Warner, Seb G, and Thom Pepper.
Since launching in 2021, Boogietown has grown into a cornerstone of the UK summer festival calendar, celebrated for its uplifting daytime party vibe and truly multi-generational crowd. Boogietown 2026 marks five years of feel-good music, community spirit, and standout programming — and its biggest chapter yet.
