Lily Allen & Scissor Sisters to headline Mighty Hoopla 2026
Other acts confirmed to play next year’s edition of the vibrant South London event include Jessie J, Little Mix’s Perrie, and iconic boyband Five.

South London’s Mighty Hoopla is set to return for another camp, colourful year and its organisers have got some real treats in store: its 2026 headliners are the incredible Lily Allen and Scissor Sisters.
A little over a fortnight on from the release of her brilliant new album ‘West End Girl’, Lily Allen has been confirmed to top the bill on Saturday 30th May when she’ll play her new album in full in a UK festival exclusive (so you won’t see her anywhere else!), while Jake Shears-led outfit Scissor Sisters will continue their triumphant reunion with a closing set on Sunday 31st May.
Other acts set to appear at pop’s hottest fest include Jessie J, Little Mix star Perrie, the newly-reformed Five, as well as JLS, Todrick Hall, Agnes, Alexandra Burke, Louise, Cascada, Estelle, Heather Small, Tulisa, The Wanted 2.0, Liberty X and loads more iconic names.
“We have a long history with both our epic headliners, and it’s going to be a monumental year,” Mighty Hoopla co-founder Glyn Fussell has said: “Every year we listen to all your pop needs. The line up next year is full of the most diverse, chaotic and divine artistry ever!”
“Every year we strive for pop perfection and next year’s mix of international artists, boybands, girlbands, live acts and DJs delivers just that,” continues co-founder Jamie Tagg. “We still have some huge names to announce, so we’re very confident this will be our most in demand year yet.”
Tickets for next year’s edition of Mighty Hoopla - which will, once again, take place in London’s Brockwell Park, near Herne Hill and Brixton, from 30th to 31st May - go on sale from 10am tomorrow (Tuesday 11th November).
