Mucky Weekender 2026 Set to Tear Up Hampshire with Massive Line-Up Energy

Mucky Weekender 2026 lands 10th to 12th September and it’s shaping up rowdy, colourful and seriously stacked. Back at Vicarage Farm, Winchester, this one’s not just a festival, it’s a full-blown end-of-season send-off with proper personality.

Seven years deep and still doing things its own way, Mucky Weekender has grown from cheeky upstart to cult favourite. Six of those years rooted at Vicarage Farm, where fields turn into dancefloors and strangers turn into crew by Sunday morning. Barry Ashworth and Dub Pistols keep steering the ship, and the vibe stays tight, welcoming and gloriously unpolished.

Line-up? It’s a mad one. Goldie returns and brings some live pressure, Roni Size steps in with heavyweight heritage, and David Rodigan delivers pure sound system authority. Dreadzone (Greg Dread) rolls through with a DJ set, while Gentleman’s Dub Club and Dutty Moonshine Big Band guarantee bounce from start to finish. Then you’ve got Norman Jay MBE, Children of Zeus, and Pop Will Eat Itself adding flavour from all corners. Special guests, The Sabres of Paradise, hosted by Dub Pistols? Say less.

Dig deeper, and it gets even tastier. Utah Saints, Micky Finn, Doc Scott and DJ Hype lock in the Drum & Bass heads. MC GQ on the mic, Uncle Dugs shelling jungle history, and Aphrodite bringing that unmistakable swing. Elsewhere, Mr Scruff, Greg Wilson, Krafty Kuts and A.Skillz keep things funky, while Freestylers, Plump DJs and Altern8 inject pure rave chaos. It’s a proper multi-genre workout, from basslines to breaks and everything in between.

Did I mention? We’ll be back once again. Hobbs and Ron Mexico go b2b for another DJ set built for pure bounce and big smiles. Expect left turns, cheeky selections and a few curveballs flying in to keep Hobbs…oops, I meant everyone, guessing and going WTF?! (in the best way!)

Beyond the music, Mucky Weekender thrives on those in-between moments. Think late-night wanderings, hidden corners, and sweaty warehouse energy tucked into the countryside. Four stages, a stacked bar venue, and plenty more are still under wraps. It’s built for exploring.

Then there’s the theme. Circus of Freaks. Expect wild outfits, surreal characters, and full send energy across the weekend. No half measures here.

Barry Ashworth said it best, “You can attend by yourself, feel safe, have the best time and leave with 100 new lifelong friends.”

Mucky Weekender 2026 is the final dance of summer, and it’s calling all heads. Lock in your crew, sort your outfits, and get ready to lose it properly.
