Rebellion 2026 Lineup
Four days and nine indoor stages of punk in Blackpool's Winter Gardens — the genre's biggest annual gathering.
About Rebellion 2026
Rebellion is punk's biggest annual gathering — four August days inside Blackpool's Winter Gardens, nine stages under one roof, and a 286-act bill that treats the genre as a half-century-deep family reunion. The Empress Ballroom closers set the tone: The Stranglers on Thursday, Sham 69 on Friday, Cock Sparrer on Saturday, Stiff Little Fingers on Sunday.
Every branch of the family is present. First-wavers run from Buzzcocks and 999 to Penetration and TV Smith; the oi! wing gets Cockney Rejects and The Business; anarcho history is covered by Steve Ignorant's Crass set, Subhumans and The Mob; American hardcore sends Cro-Mags, M.D.C. and The Adolescents; and the international class — Germany's stadium-scale Die Toten Hosen, Italy's Los Fastidios, Korea's Rumkicks, Japan's Mikabomb — proves the export took. The Opera House even runs a full post-punk-and-new-wave wing: The Chameleons, Bow Wow Wow, Au Pairs, Lene Lovich.
Days, stages and set times are all published — every act card below shows its slot.
Expect punk, rock, alternative and post-punk across 286 acts.
