Kelis will join Maribou State in appearing at London’s Lido Festival next year – check out all the details and find out how to get tickets below.
Last week (October 15), Maribou State were the first headliners announced for London’s LIDO Festival 2026.
The electronic duo will perform at the Victoria Park festival on Saturday June 20. Now, one of the next acts to be revealed is Kelis, who will also perform on Saturday. Other artists appearing at the festival will be announced daily this week.
LIDO is named after the park’s Lido Field, and promises two weekends featuring “carefully curated music line-ups alongside community-driven activities during the week, all with a strong emphasis on sustainability.”
The second edition of the festival returns to Victoria Park in 2026 following its successful debut in June of this year. Tickets go on sale this Friday (October 24) at 10am, and will be available here.
Lido festival launched this year, after being announced late in 2024. It’s run by AEG Presents, who also organise All Points East, BST Hyde Park and Forwards.
Announcing their inaugural year, LIDO explained that it aims to “showcase the most current headliners and work closely with them to curate the line-ups, reflecting their own musical passions, with a strong focus on emerging artists.”
The first edition saw headline performances from Massive Attack, Jamie xx, Charli XCX and London Grammar.
NME gave Charli XCX’s LIDO day – which was dubbed ‘partygirl’ – a glowing four-star review, which read: “The line-up pulls from her list of collaborators, friends and cult acts to serve up a cross-section of current electronic-leaning pop and some of its most interesting creators.
“As much as today is a celebration of a whole corner of music, though, it’s also a victory lap for Charli and the runaway success of ‘Brat’,” the review continued. “As she comes on stage under a barrage of green lights and the unfurling of the ‘Brat’ banner – now tattered and half-shredded – the album’s impact is evident in the excited screams that ring across Victoria Park.”
