Reflecting on the upcoming performance, they shared, "We’ve made some of our best memories touring in London, from our first ever show at Oslo through to playing Alexandra Palace earlier this year. We're over the moon to announce our biggest show yet in the city next summer, alongside a line up of some of our favourite artists. This is going to be special. See you all next June."
The duo have released three studio albums: '
Portraits' (2015), '
Kingdoms In Colour' (2018), and '
Hallucinating Love' (2025), collaborating with artists such as Holly Walker and Khruangbin.
Jim King, CEO of AEG Presents UK and European Festivals, commented on the festival's impact, stating, "LIDO’s first year was an incredible moment for London with exceptional performances, a perfect setting in Victoria Park and a real step forward in how we can deliver live music more sustainably." He added, "We’re delighted to welcome Maribou State as our first headliner to set the tone for what’s to come... unforgettable live shows with world-class artists, and a festival that truly feels like summer in the city."
