Various London venues

Pitchfork Music Festival is gearing up for another edition, with a jam-packed schedule of eclectic live music encompassing everything from avant-rock and post-punk to psych-pop, UK rap and deconstructed dance music.  This year's line-up features Aussie psych King Gizzard and the Lizard Wizard at the Royal Albert Hall on November 4 and French electronic pop artist Oklou at the Roundhouse on November 7, followed by American experimentalist artist Laurie Anderson the next night. Of course, you've still got a plethora of other venues getting involved with shows at Colour Factory, KOKO and the Dalston Takeover with Panchiko, Indigo De Souza, underscores and Jay Som.  Watch this space for more acts who will no doubt be on your Spotify Wrapped come December 2026. It’s basically the place to be if you consider yourself a music fan with a finger on the pulse.
