Supported by Sheffield BID and Sheffield City Council, get ready for a full weekend of music and entertainment as the city centre transforms into a vibrant hub of celebration alongside Tramlines Festival.
New for 2026, the Devonshire Green Main Stage extends across all three days, including a Friday evening opening programme curated by Open Decks FC, bringing together some of Sheffield’s best DJs for a feel-good start to the weekend.
Across Saturday and Sunday, the programme has been specially curated by legendary local promoter Papa Al, showcasing an eclectic mix of live acts, DJs and community performers that reflect Sheffield’s diverse and thriving music scene.
Saturday’s headline set comes from Sheffield favourites Kiziah and the Kings, known for their uplifting blend of reggae, soul and Caribbean rhythms. The line-up also includes Malachite, Solar Love Society, Tavira, Blue Street Brass, Disco Choir and Chekere Dance.
Sunday sees Fringe favourites Jungle Lion close the weekend, returning as one of the event’s most celebrated acts. They are joined by Shanghai Treason, Soul Division, Sparkle Sistaz and a special Jamaican Carifolk Dance presentation from Ripton Lindsey.
Friday night features headline host Dixie, alongside Kavita Varu and Jesus Hairdo, delivering a mix of pop classics, dancefloor favourites and festival anthems.
With hundreds of performances also taking place across venues throughout the city centre, The Fringe at Tramlines remains one of the UK’s biggest free music celebrations, attracting around 40,000 visitors each year.
