Still Looking for a DnB Festival This Summer? Here's Where You Need to Be




Missed Glastonbury? Didn't manage to get tickets for your first choice? Or have you just decided that one festival isn't enough this year?

Don't worry, the summer is far from over, and if drum & bass or jungle is your thing, there's still plenty going on around the UK.

Here's a few festivals that are well worth checking out.


WAH In The City – London (5 July)

If you like your festivals with absolutely stacked line-ups, WAH In The City should already be on your radar.

It's become one of the biggest one-day drum & bass festivals in the country, taking over Silverworks Island with heavyweight artists across multiple stages. Expect everything from rollers to jump-up, liquid to jungle, and enough bass to make your chest vibrate for days afterwards.


Bassfest – Sheffield (18–19 July)

Bassfest has quietly become one of the biggest weekends for bass music fans in the UK.

With over 100 artists across two days, you'll find plenty of drum & bass alongside house, bassline and garage. If you're going with a group where everyone has slightly different tastes, this is probably one of the safest bets.


Boomtown Fair – Hampshire (August)

Let's be honest...

Boomtown isn't just a festival.

It's basically a temporary city full of music, actors, hidden stages and enough things to do that you'll probably miss half of it.

If you're into drum & bass, this place is heaven. Every year you'll find huge names, underground artists and surprise sets tucked away all over the site. Just make sure you've got comfortable shoes because you'll be walking miles every day.


Creamfields – Cheshire (August)

People usually think of big-room dance music when they hear Creamfields, but the drum & bass line-ups have been getting stronger year after year.

Whether you're after massive production, huge crowds or some of the biggest names in electronic music all on one site, it's definitely worth a look.


Good Vibrations Society – Sussex (31 July–2 August)

Fancy something a little different?

Good Vibrations Society mixes drum & bass with wellbeing, nature and a much more laid-back atmosphere. It's smaller than the huge commercial festivals but that's part of the appeal. Think quality music without spending half your weekend queueing for everything.


So... Which One Would I Pick?

If you want pure drum & bass, I'd probably say WAH In The City or Boomtown.

If you're after a full weekend with loads of different genres, Bassfest is a cracking shout.

And if giant crowds aren't really your thing, Good Vibrations Society looks like one of those festivals where you can actually relax between the raving.

Whatever you choose, one thing's certain...

Summer 2026 is absolutely packed with bass music, and there's still plenty of chances to get out there, discover new artists and make some questionable decisions at 4am while someone drops an absolute anthem.
