GALA 2026: full line-up lands as Peckham Rye Park kicks off summer
A Peckham weekender of electronic music, long afternoons in the park and a line-up that moves from heavy Friday sets to a slower, sun-stretched Sunday.
GALA returns to Peckham Rye Park on May 22–24, with its full 2026 line-up now out — three days of electronic music that tend to open London’s festival season in a laid-back style.
Friday is the most bass-driven. Giggs tops the bill with The Homecoming, alongside CASisDEAD, Novelist and D Double E. Benji B goes back-to-back with Judah, while Conducta, Bakey, Hamdi and Mala fill out a stacked run of sets. Elsewhere: Objekt, Or:la & Pariah, Ikonika and a live show from Paranoid London ft. Josh Caffé. Deviation, NTS and Rinse FM are among the partners hosting across the day.
Saturday shifts things slightly. Peach links with Prosumer, Job Jobse returns, and Call Super, Midland and DJ Seinfeld all feature. There’s live work from Steffi x Virginia and Radioactive Man, plus Saoirse’s A/V project TEM₀₀. Club Are, Refuge Worldwide and Peach’s Dreamland take over stages.
Sunday leans into house and disco. Todd Terje, Seth Troxler and Lil’ Louis lead, with Joe Claussell, Gilles Peterson and CC:DISCO! also on the bill. Antal, Hunee and Palms Trax go back-to-back-to-back, while Talaboman and Chaos in the CBD round things out.
There are a few familiar fixtures around the edges, too. Estrella Damm is back near the main stage — a practical addition to the music line up. If the weather holds, it’s where people tend to pause between sets before heading back in. Estrella Damm has also released a curated Spotify playlist, Sounds of GALA, featuring Balearic beats, electronic tracks and feel-good summer selections inspired by the festival.
