DesertFest London Announces Day Splits and More Bands

Desertfest London has released Day Tickets for its 2026 edition as well as revealing day splits and stage splits for their annual gathering of the finest in stoner rock and underground heavy music.

Completing its diverse line up, this latest announcement confirms Desertfest 2026 as one for the ages. Friday night sees a classic evening of stoner heaviness culminating in Electric Ballroom headliners Hermano (helmed by desert rock legend, John Garcia), while Saturday champions local heroes as Green Lung headline the Roundhouse. The festival closes out with a second stint at the Roundhouse on Sunday with none other than Clutch, a band who has been on the wish lists of Desertfest attendees since its inception.

New additions include prog-psych sensations Church of the Cosmic Skull, Lancastrian rock apostles Wytch Hazel, and London crossover kings Inhuman Nature, who join Pigs Pigs PigsPigs Pigs Pigs Pigs & Green Lung for a celebration of the Best of British-shining the spotlight on homegrown talent that we feel really deserve time on the big stage.

This final announcement sees the reunion of Florida sludge pioneers Cavity, who will headline Friday’s Black Heart stage. As a defining presence in underground heavy music, Desertfest is honoured to host these unsung heroes of raw power. They join a number of historic reunion staking place over the weekend, including stoner legends The Sword, and underground doom icons Capricorns - all taking place deep in the scene that worships them. Not to mention note worthy Desertfest debuts from the likes of -16- and Solace and first trips to UK soil for many bands, including Causa Sui, Komodor, Moundrag, and Midhaven.

And with that Desertfest 2026 completes an astounding line up for its fourteenth year of pure rock fury, compelled as ever by the power of the riff.
