Manchester’s premier multi-venue festival returns this October, cementing its reputation as the ultimate destination for music discovery. Neighbourhood Festival takes over 11 venues on Saturday 17 th October for a full day of live music. Tickets go on sale at 10am on Friday 13th March.
Ahead of their monumental, sold-out headline show at the O2 Ritz tomorrow night, KEO are confirmed to headline Neighbourhood Festival 2026. This performance marks the band's next major Manchester show, solidifying their status as one of the most vital acts in the UK right now.
Joining them are meteoric four-piece Florence Road. The BBC Sound of 2026 nominees will return to Manchester after their upcoming sold-out show at Academy 2 this spring, bringing their high-intensity live show back the city.
An exciting list of emerging artists have also been announced to perform across Manchester’s most-loved venues in October, including The Guest List, who formed in Manchester and have quickly made a name for themselves in the local music scene with mature lyricism, energetic performances, and an ever-growing online and live fan base.
In addition to local talent, Neighbourhood Festival continues to provide a platform for rising stars from across the country and further, with Scotland’s Brogeal and Ireland’s Brooki and Girl in the Year Above performing.
Since its inception in 2016, Neighbourhood Festival has served as the definitive launchpad for the UK’s next wave of superstars. The festival’s "ones to watch" alumni include BRIT Award winners Sam Fender, Mabel, and Holly Humberstone, alongside established live favourites like Yungblud, Declan McKenna, Mahalia, and The Lathums.
Taking over Manchester’s most iconic venues across the Oxford Road corridor, the festival transforms the city centre into a sprawling celebration of independent live music.
Neighbourhood Festival returns to Manchester this October. Stay tuned for further line-up additions.
