Rock ’n’ Roll Circus Sheffield 2026 Lineup Update
A major Sheffield music festival, Rock ’n’ Roll Circus, has announced a huge addition to its 2026 lineup — with Richard Ashcroft confirmed as the Sunday night headliner at Don Valley Bowl.
He joins previously announced Friday headliners The Streets, with more big names expected to follow as organisers build excitement for the 2026 event.
Scottish favourites The Fratellis are also set to appear, adding to a bill that organisers believe will make 2026 the biggest and most exciting year yet for Sheffield’s much-loved circus-themed festival.
Festival director Ali O’Neill said the team is preparing a weekend that blends major artists with the immersive circus atmosphere that has turned Rock ’n’ Roll Circus into one of Sheffield’s stand-out music attractions.
