The Gathering Festival returns to Cleethorpes’ Meridian Showground in 2026 for its seventh edition, promising its biggest festival yet!

Front and centre this year is Ben Nicky, one of the most in-demand DJs on the planet. Known for his explosive, genre-spanning sets and huge presence on the international festival circuit, Ben’s headline slot marks a defining moment in The Gathering’s journey and is set to be an unforgettable highlight for fans.

He’ll be joined by fellow Seven Legends Andy Whitby, Danny Rampling, David Rust, Judge Jules, Lisa Lashes and Sandy Rivera, along with special guests Rob Tissera and Seamus Haji. The stacked line-up also features Flip & Fill, Kelly Llorenna (Live), Karen Parry (Live), Dougal, Tommy G & Pow, Mark EG, Anne Savage, M Zone, Reklus, Shugz, Lange, Jordan Suckley, Keyes, Finchy, Shocker and Chris Budd.

The festival continues to champion the wider scene, with an impressive roster of support including Richard Tulip, Stu Magoo, The Missus, Kirk Lloyd & Gaz Davies, Anna Mac, Faze, Kirby, Joe Swales, Blacklisted, D-Clips, 8-Ball, Healy, Logic Lloyd, Blackout, Trev B, Clarkie and Fergz. Not only is Daz Flatman part of the line-up, but as Festival Director he has been the driving force behind The Gathering’s rise since its launch in 2020.

And with seven more major acts still to be announced, 2026 is shaping up to be the most spectacular year in The Gathering’s history.

CLEETHORPES! Legends of the east-coast, are you the ultimate fake-fest crowd?

We reckon so, we’ve seen your moves and groves! But if you’re ready to prove it, then join us at Meridian Showground this June for an exhilarating day of live music from the finest of rock and indie. Feel the raw power of the Foo’s, the whirlwind of Blur’s iconic swagger and Britpop brilliance, and the timeless tunes of our latest Fake Band, for Fleetwood Mac! Not to mention the raw intensity of Alanis Morissette, the anthems of Kings Of Leon and the sheer indie magic of Pulp! Phew!

Our Freddie’s struttin’ in, cape pressed, mic ready… says Cleethorpes is the only crowd with roars big enough to keep up! Our Liam reckons he’ll come too – if there’s decent chips! 

2026’s stacked with pro-level Fake Bands for Queen, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Oasis, Bon Jovi, Blondie and The Jam – six crowd-sizzlers ready to buzz up the marquee!  Big tunes, big voices and that trademark Cleethorpes chaos… one huge singalong under the sun.  Time to shine, sing, and show us how it’s done, Cleggy!
