Brighton’s about to be the spot once again. Every May, The Great Escape Festival transforms this seaside city into the UK’s most buzzing music hub. It’s the festival where tomorrow’s headliners cut their teeth, where industry insiders scout their next obsession and where music lovers get to say, “I saw them before they blew up.”

A Glimpse Into The Madness
This isn’t your typical festival. Think 450+ fresh, boundary-pushing artists playing across 35+ venues, from underground basements to iconic seaside stages. You won’t be stuck in a muddy field—this is a full-on city takeover where every corner of Brighton is pulsing with live music.
Who’s Stealing the Spotlight?
This year, Rizzle Kicks are making a triumphant hometown return, ready to turn Brighton into one massive party. And if that wasn’t enough, Peter Doherty is stepping up with his signature chaos and poetic grit. Beyond the headliners, we’re hyped about the likes of Jordan Adetunji, Lynks, The K’s, Man/Woman/Chainsaw, MOIO and The Moonlandingz—all pushing sonic boundaries and demanding your attention.

Beyond the Gigs – The Industry Talks
TGE isn’t just about catching live sets; it’s a goldmine for artists and industry heads. The TGE Conference is packed with panels, workshops and keynotes diving deep into music biz trends, artist strategies and where the industry is heading next. If you’re looking to network or learn how to level up, this is the place.
Get Involved – Grab Those Tickets
Whether you’re down for a single-day sesh or going all in for the full festival experience, now’s the time to lock in your tickets. Team tickets are perfect if you’re rolling deep with your crew. Don’t sleep on this—it’s gonna sell out fast. Get yours now.
More Than a Festival – It’s a Brighton Takeover
The best part? It’s not just about the music. Between sets, explore Brighton’s legendary indie shops, grab a pint in a hidden pub, hit up some next-level food spots and soak in that iconic beachside energy.
So whether you’re an artist, a fan or just someone who loves discovering what’s next—The Great Escape is calling.
