Ready to make some of the toughest decisions of your year? The EOTR 2026 Stage Times have landed.
The grid is, as always, available as a handy fold-out clash-finder in the physical festival programme, which you can grab when you arrive from our roaming stewards, the programme kiosks, or over at the Merch Tent. The booklet also contains all the exact timings for comedy, literature, late-night events, workshops, and extra activities across the site.
We’ve also got some lineup changes: Bassvictim can sadly no longer play but we hope to welcome them to a future festival. We’ll now have Stop Making Sense… Live in that slot, ft. 10-piece band Slippery People recreating ‘Stop Making Sense’ on stage. We also welcome comedian and podfather Adam Buxton back to EOTR, bringing his new BUG David Byrne special to the festival, guiding fans through selected moments from Byrne’s spectacular career, from Talking Heads, to present day. Also new to the bill: 101 Part Time Jobs digging in to the real stories behind life in the music and comedy world, from precarious side jobs to career breakthroughs. They’ll speak to Salford-born powerhouse Molly McGuinness and Brighton psychedelic art-pop band big long sun. On the lit side Lanre Bakare is unfortunately no longer able to make it but Janine Warren, author of The World Was A Mess But His Hair Was Perfect: The Last Indie Music Scene 2000–2010, now joins the bill.
