Let It Roll 2026 kicks off. Lake Most awaits over 130 international names

Let It Roll 2026 officially opens this afternoon at Lake Most. Three festival nights, Thursday 30 July through Saturday 1 August, with campsites already open since Wednesday. The organisers are calling it one of the strongest programmes in the festival’s history, and the numbers back them up: over 130 international artists and, for the first time ever, live acts on the main stage every single day.

Chase & Status, Pendulum and an opening ceremony scored by Mefjus

The headline slots belong to Chase & Status, bringing new material from their upcoming album, and Pendulum Live with their current record. The music for the opening ceremony, traditionally one of the festival’s defining moments, was prepared this year by Camo & Krooked with Mefjus and the MODUS label crew.

A chapter of its own is the Czech premiere of CONTROL ALT DΞLΞTΞ. Under this alias, Don Diablo, a name otherwise associated with Tomorrowland and the mainstage EDM circuit, returns to the drum and bass he started out with. A pure DNB set in front of the crowd of the world’s biggest genre festival is a gamble that could go either way, which is exactly why it’s worth watching.

B2B as the concept of the year

The main programming thread this year is exclusive B2B pairings that don’t happen in regular club rotation. Friction b2b Mozey, Metrik b2b Grafix, Calyx b2b The Upbeats, Annix b2b Fade Black, Simula b2b Skantia, Turno b2b Gino, [IVY] b2b Mandidextrous. From melodic euphoria through a neuro laboratory to jump-up and rave tempos, each pairing targets a different part of the crowd.

Anniversaries: 30 years of Drum&BassArena, 15 years of Eatbrain

Drum&BassArena turns thirty and brings the return of LTJ Bukem after eight years, fittingly in the thirtieth anniversary year of the Logical Progression compilation. Alongside him, S.P.Y and Technimatic. Eatbrain Night celebrates fifteen years of the label with exclusive B2B sets, while the Monstercat takeover imports North American bass sound led by NGHTMRE and festival debutant ALLEYCVT. The programme is rounded out by Worried About Henry and Subardo takeovers and the limited-capacity Ponton Stage, set directly on the lake’s surface.

MC & Vocalists Night

A concept night built around voices. The biggest draw is Grammy winner Flowdan, moving between grime, dubstep and drum and bass. Alongside him, Eva Lazarus with her soundsystem background, and Gardna. A reminder of how naturally DNB communicates with rap, reggae and wider UK culture.
