Ely Dance Festival returns on Saturday 30th May 2026, transforming Ely Outdoor Sports Association into a dance music paradise with 11 hours of non-stop entertainment across four distinct stages.
Running from 12pm to 11pm, the festival offers something for every dance music fan with multiple areas showcasing different sounds and eras. The 90s MainStage celebrates the golden era of dance music with classics that defined a generation. Ibiza Classics recreates the magic of the White Isle with euphoric anthems and sun-soaked vibes. Bass Zone delivers underground sounds including drum & bass, jungle and garage for those who prefer heavy beats and deep bass lines. The VIP Zone provides a premium experience with exclusive access and elevated amenities.
The multiple stage format allows festival-goers to explore different vibes throughout the day or settle into their favourite zone for the afternoon and evening. Superstar and grassroots DJs will perform alongside live PAs, spanning multiple genres and decades of electronic music.
Ice-cold beers and ciders will be available alongside a street food village offering various cuisines to maintain energy levels across the full 11 hours.
Ely Dance Festival takes place on Saturday 30th May 2026, with Ely Fest Family Festival concluding the weekend on Sunday 31st May headlined by Pat Sharp.
Artist announcements will be made in the coming weeks. Early bird tickets are available now at elyfest.co.uk with advance booking discounts.
