Tramlines 2026: Sheffield artists and comedy lineup announced for festival
Reginald D Hunter and Dom Joly join the lineup for this summer
Tramlines Festival has announced an exciting new wave of artists for 2026, with a focus on Sheffield talent and a complete reveal of the comedy line-up.
Confirmed headliners at the festival, at Hillsborough Park from July 24 to 26, already include Fatboy Slim, Courteeners, Wolf Alice, Kaiser Chiefs, Blossoms, and Wetleg.
New local acts have been added across the weekend playing most of the stages across the festival.
One highlight is Pattern + Push, hosting a full Saturday takeover featuring exclusively female artists from Sheffield.
Stages hosted by Slambarz and Live From The Library will continue championing new voices with spoken word, performance, and alternative acts alongside the main music programme.
In addition to local music talent, Tramlines has confirmed its full comedy line-up for 2026.
Comedy offerings include Dom Joly's special Trigger Happy TV: 25th anniversary show, alongside performances by Ross Noble, Reginald D Hunter, Emmanuel Sonubi, and other big stand-up comedians.
Timm Cleasby, Operations Director at Tramlines, said: “Local artists have always been at the heart of Tramlines."
"Every year we see people take that first step on one of our stages and go on to build something bigger, and that’s what the festival is all about. The Pattern + Push line-up this year is something we’re really proud of.
"It’s all female and all Sheffield, and while there’s still more to do, it feels like a proper step forward and something we want to keep building on.
"At the same time, the comedy line-up this year is one of our strongest yet, with names like Dom Joly, Reginald D Hunter and Ross Noble set to be a big part of the weekend.”
