Jacob Alon has landed a coveted Waterfront Stage slot at Latitude

Latitude Festival returns to Henham Park, Suffolk this summer.

Jacob Alon is set to perform on the Waterfront Stage at Latitude Festival as part of the event's 20th anniversary celebrations.

This performance marks Alon as only the fourth musical artist to grace the stage, joining the ranks of Damon Albarn, Chilly Gonzales, and Lang Lang.

Festival Director Melvin Benn comments, "The Waterfront Stage is one of the most stunning performance locations in the world, a place where only the rarest musical talents have performed. Jacob Alon is exactly that. A voice that stops you in your tracks, an artist whose rise, from Later with Jools Holland to the Brits to supporting Florence and the Machine this summer has been extraordinary to watch. Placing Jacob here in our 20th anniversary year feels like exactly the kind of cultural moment this stage was made for."

Jacob adds, "SO honoured to be bobbing up the river stage at Latitude this year. I will be sure to pay the troll toll and give my gracious respects to the river undines and water nymphs. They will join us in song. Last year I was carried across your beautiful river by the most delightful disco diva ferrywoman and she made my day. This year I will think of her as the sound carries downstream."

Alon's debut album 'In Limerence', released in May 2025 via Island Records/EMI and produced by Dan Carey, received nominations for both the Mercury Prize and the Scottish Album of the Year Award. He also recently won the BRIT Award Critics' Choice.

Latitude Festival returns to Henham Park, Suffolk, celebrating its 20th anniversary from 23rd–26th July and featuring headline acts such as David Byrne, Lewis Capaldi, and Teddy Swims. Other notable performers include The Flaming Lips, The Last Dinner Party, Wet Leg, Self Esteem, and Jalen Ngonda.
