Tickets are flying out for Love to Be… festival so get on this! Legendary house music brand Love to be… returns to Harrogate on Saturday 5th September 2026 for another full-scale open-air celebration at The Stray.
Following the success of previous editions, the festival returns with an expanded vision, three stages, enhanced production and a phase one lineup that spans generations of house music culture, with more headliners still to be confirmed.
Set across the Stray Stage, Music Factory and a dedicated VIP stage, the 2026 edition brings together global headliners, underground favourites and live performers in a striking parkland setting.



Leading the phase one lineup on the Stray Stage are Defected’s leading lady Sam Divine, soulful house royalty Julie McKnight performing live, and house music heavyweight David Penn. They are joined by Mousse T, Trimtone, DJ Cash Only, Janika Tenn and Keexx.
The Music Factory stage pays tribute to Love to be’s house music heritage. Todd Terry, Gok Wan and K‑Klass (Live) lead the charge, with Grant Nelson, Paul Taylor and Tom Wainwright adding further depth. Support comes from Dale Castell, Aimee, Sinclair and Bongo Dave, creating a stage built around timeless house culture and dancefloor connection.


A range of General Entry and VIP options are available, including flexible payment plans, group offers and upgraded VIP experiences. Demand is already high, with multiple tiers sold out, and limited remaining allocations available across both ticket types.
