Date published: 12th Feb 2026

Moovin Festival have unveiled the first wave lineup for their 2026 edition. The boutique festival returns to Whitebottom Farm in Etherow Country Park, near Stockport, on the weekend of 12th - 14th June. 

Groove Armada and 2manydjs, both previous Moovin headliners, unite to top the bill for the festival’s newest edition, performing sets in the Barn Stage, a converted cow barn which takes on a new DJ-led format and refreshed look for 2026. Additional names confirmed to be making an appearance in Etherow Country Park include Gilles Peterson, Nightmares On Wax, K-Klass, Mr Scruff, and a rare performance from original Haçienda residents Mike Pickering & Graeme Park, among many others. 

Co-headliner Groove Armada commented following the announcement: “"At the bottom of a tree lined valley, a hay barn with a fat sound-system. A freewheeling crowd, no VIP red ropes, no hassle from the authorities, just music and good vibes. 90s free party? No, it's the wonderful Moovin festival."

“Whenever I get to play at Moovin Festival it’s a highlight of my festival calendar,” DJ Paulette added, “As soon as I see the waterfall I feel like I'm home. The crowd is just beautiful and the energy is electric!”
