2000trees 2026 announces final bands

2000trees Festival has announced its complete line-up for 2026, with Neck Deep joining Funeral for a Friend and Alkaline Trio as main stage headliners. The festival – always one of the highlights of the summer – has also announced emo legends Sunny Day Real Estate, hotly tipped Bleech 9:3 and trees favourites The Xcerts will be heading to Upcote Farm near Cheltenham from 8 to 11 July, 2026.

Upon revealing the final bands, 2000trees Festival organiser, James Scarlett said: “There we go, that’s pretty much a wrap on the 2000trees 2026 line-up. We’re all incredibly proud of what we’ve put together this year, so to see it reflected in the best-selling year we’re ever had is an amazing feeling.

We will have some returning bands we’ve missed and love like Marmozets and our big exclusive with Arcane Roots. Some new bands we are so excited about like Sunny Day Real Estate, Mariachi El Bronx and Pinkshift, as well as some returning heroes like Alkaline Trio, Funeral for a Friend, Cancer Bats, The Bronx and Dinosaur Pile-Up. Who in their right mind wants to miss all that.

It’s safe to say it’s going to be a real moment having Neck Deep return to close the festival 10 years on from their last Trees performance. Tickets are starting to sell out left, right and centre, so I’ll say it one last time – 2000trees 2026 is not one to be missed!”
