End of the Road Festival has unveiled another wave of artists for its 2026 edition, adding even more excitement to one of the UK’s most beloved independent music festivals. Known for its carefully curated mix of established favourites, emerging talent, and genre-defying performers, the latest announcement further strengthens a lineup packed with discovery and creativity.

Leading the newly announced names are New York rock outfit Geese, whose rapid rise over the last few years has made them one of the most exciting bands in alternative music. Blending art rock, post-punk, indie, and classic rock influences, the band have earned widespread acclaim for both their ambitious recordings and explosive live performances. Their appearance is likely to be one of the most anticipated sets of the weekend, offering festival-goers the chance to see a band widely tipped for even greater success in the coming years.

While Geese may be the headline-grabbing addition, End of the Road has always been a festival that rewards those willing to explore beyond the biggest names. This year’s lineup once again features a wealth of artists who could easily become highlights of the weekend.

Angine de Poitrine

French experimental outfit Angine de Poitrine bring one of the most unique sounds on the bill.

For attendees looking to discover something genuinely different, their set promises to be one of the festival’s most intriguing.

Fat Dog

Few bands have generated as much buzz in recent years as Fat Dog. The London collective’s chaotic blend of punk, electronic music, rave culture, and absurdist energy has made them one of the UK’s most talked-about live acts. Their performances are famously wild, combining relentless rhythms with a party atmosphere that often turns audiences into willing participants. Expect packed crowds and complete mayhem.

Adult DVD

Leeds-based Adult DVD continue to build momentum with their infectious mix of indie rock, dance-punk, electronic grooves, and irresistible hooks. Their music feels tailor-made for festivals, balancing catchy songwriting with an energetic live show that keeps crowds moving from start to finish. They’re exactly the kind of band that can arrive as a curiosity and leave with an army of new fans.

PVA

London trio PVA have become one of the most exciting names operating between post-punk, electronic music, and experimental pop. Their music combines pulsing synths, hypnotic rhythms, and art-rock sensibilities to create something that feels both innovative and accessible. With a reputation for captivating live performances, PVA are likely to be one of the standout electronic acts of the weekend.

Whether you’re heading to see Geese’s headline-worthy performance, lose yourself in the chaos of Fat Dog, dance along with Adult DVD, explore the sonic landscapes of PVA, or experience the unpredictability of Angine de Poitrine, the newest additions offer plenty of reasons to be excited.

As always, End of the Road remains one of the UK’s finest festivals for music fans who love discovery as much as they love the headliners.
