Spring has sprung, for now at least, and festival season feels just around the corner. We can already taste the warm beer. 

Green Man, one of the UK’s best festivals, has just dropped its line-up for 2026, and it’s certainly looking like it will be one to fill the Glasto-shaped hole in our calendars. 

Fresh off their BRITs win, Wolf Alice have been revealed as one of the headlines for the fezzie held in the Bannau Brycheiniog (Brecon Beacons). The British rock group will take to the main stage on the Sunday, following headliners Mogwai (Thursday), Wilco (Friday) and Four Tet (Saturday). 

Joining them throughout the weekend are an excellent variety of acts spanning indie, punk, dance and rock. Also on the Green Man line-up are Baxter Drury, Cat Power, Aldous Harding and Dry Cleaning, alongside electro indie pop group Avalon Emerson & the Charm, party starters Fcukers, post-punk outfit Shame and Kiwi indie rock band The Beths. There’s also a strong spread of local Welsh favourites like Cate Le Bon, Charlotte Church's Late Night Pop Dungeon and Panic Shack.

Green Man takes place in the Welsh Black Mountains from August 20 to 23 2026. It is sold out, however you can sign up for official resale tickets, sold via Tixel, online here
