Sadly Live at Leeds festival will return in 2027 for it’s 20th anniversary but this does mean that it will skip out 2026 completely. This is a real shame as it’s one of two festivals which we look forward to cover. Live at Leeds is always on a saturday and on sunday is Slam Dunk Festival so having Lal being absent on the festival bill next year is a shame. The question now is what will take it’s place or will Slam dunk have something in it’s place as it’s also their 20th anniversary too!

A statement below from the team at Live at Leeds! For those who also enjoy the in the city festival which takes place later in the year this is also postponed until 2027 too.

It’s a shame as I do love Lal festival for helping me tick of bucket list bands along with discovering many new bands as well!
