2000trees have added The Xcerts, ALT BLK ERA and Neck Deep to this year's lineup

The festival will feature a debut event performance by Sunny Day Real Estate.

2000trees Festival has confirmed Neck Deep as the Saturday night headliner for its 2026 edition, which will take place from 8th to 11th July at Upcote Farm near Cheltenham.

This announcement marks the band's first main-stage festival headline slot, a decade after their initial performance at the festival. Further additions include Sunny Day Real Estate, making their festival debut, alongside acts such as ALT BLK ERA, Cosmic Psychos and Higher Power. Plus, Mallory Knox, The Xcerts and Mouth Culture among others.

Festival organiser James Scarlett says, "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!"

The festival's full line-up reveals a wide array of acts across its five stages, including a headlining performance by Pup on Wednesday, Alkaline Trio on Thursday, and Funeral for a Friend on Friday.
