Our LINE UP

Line-Up — 25 Years of Soul by the Sea

For 25 years, Margate Soul Weekender has been the heartbeat of Britain’s soul scene — a celebration of music, culture, and unity by the sea. This summer, we honour that legacy with our biggest line-up yet: three unforgettable days and nights of live performances, DJs, and dance-floor energy across two iconic stages — The Sunset Stage and The Drill Shed Live Arena.

Friday opens in true MSW style with the legendary Incognito, the groove power of the Brit Funk Association, and feel-good favourites Odyssey, alongside Groove Odyssey with Dave Lee and Bobby & Steve.

Saturday turns up the heat with Brass Construction, The Real Thing, and Shaun Escoffery, joined by Zoe Kapri, Reel People featuring Angela Johnson, and the soulful energy of Garage City.

We close the weekend on Sunday with timeless performances from Change, Janet Kay, Carroll Thompson, Peter Hunnigale, and Children of Zeus, the perfect finale to 25 years of rhythm, love, and soul.

From live legends to future icons, every beat of the weekend celebrates the story of Margate Soul Weekender — where soul lives, and the seaside moves.

Secure your weekend pass now — and be part of history.
