The Maccabees by Phil Sharp

The Maccabees are taking their reunion into a second year.

The Maccabees, CMAT, The Wombats, Two Door Cinema Club and The Libertines are all leading the first wave of artists to be confirmed for next year’s Truck Festival.

“We’re absolutely buzzing to announce the first wave of names for Truck 2026 after such an incredible demand already for tickets, bringing together some legends who’ve been responsible for Truck memories over the years as well as standout names we’ve been wanting to have at our warped party for years,” the event’s John Dell responded.

To welcome a reformed The Maccabees to Truck is a real bucket list moment for us and to have CMAT back to claim her rightful spot as a UK festival headliner after 2025’s unforgettable set is going to be a really special occasion that shows the journey Truck has been on with countless artists.

“Every year when curating the festival’s line-up, we have the Truck faithful firmly in our mind – and with so many heavyweight names who’ve blazed a trail in our scene heading to Hill Farm in 2026 we’re more assured than ever that we have the best indie summer playlist going.”
