Organisers of the Lazydays Festival in Southend-on-Sea, Essex, have announced they will alternate performances between stages so fans can see every act during the event from July 24 to July 26, 2026.
The change, introduced by organisers WeCraft Events, means music will swap between the main stage and the second stage throughout the weekend. This plan is designed to stop schedules from overlapping and help visitors avoid rushing between different areas of Priory Park.
The 2026 event features a doubled budget for performers, with a line-up that includes Tinie Tempah, Feeder, Sister Sledge, and Natalie Imbruglia. To give attendees more time on site, gates on Friday, July 24, 2026, will now open three hours earlier at 14:00.
To help with local traffic and parking, a new park and ride service will be based at London Southend Airport. The service costs £15 per day and includes a shuttle bus that takes passengers directly to the festival gates.
