SHIIINE ON WEEKENDER RETURNS TO SKEGNESS — 19–21 MARCH 2027

Three days and nights of indie, alternative and dance music by the sea.

No tents, no mud, no trek back to a campsite — just live music, DJs and parties, with your own bed at the end of the night.

THE LINE-UP

FRIDAY

Cast make their Skegness debut, headlining Friday night alongside Black Grape and Jim Bob, while Reverend & The Makers, The Futureheads and The Rifles take over Reds.

Elsewhere, The Sabres of Paradise, The Orb, Ozric Tentacles and Banco de Gaia kick-start the weekend.

SATURDAY

One of the most anticipated Shiiine On debuts yet, as Babyshambles headline Saturday night.

They’re joined by fellow debutants Gene and Puressence, with Shiiine favourites Ned’s Atomic Dustbin, The Sultans of Ping and Dub Pistols, plus Milltown Brothers, Senser, Spoon Speaker Man and more.

SUNDAY

Ash return to headline our final night, joined by Starsailor. Buzzcocks, The Selecter and Rhoda Dakar take over Centre Stage, whilst Sleeper, Dubstar and The Supernaturals bring the Britpop party.

Make sure you stay until the end too, as Tim Burgess hosts a special closing party alongside Star Shaped.

AND THAT’S JUST THE BANDS…

SHIIINE ON: RAVE ON

The dance party is back and bigger for 2027, featuring EMF, Bez (who hosts a day rave!), snooker legend Steve Davis and Kavus Torabi.

SHIIINE ON: UNPLUGGED

For the first time in Skegness, we have our very own Unplugged Stage, featuring a special stripped-back performance from The Bluetones, as well as Chris Helme.

COMEDY STAGE

The laughs return to Skegness too, with Rob Newman heading up our Comedy Stage.

Following his brilliant appearance at Shiiine On Minehead, where he packed out Studio 36, we couldn’t resist bringing him back for Skegness.

The comedy legend is joined by Terry Christian, who performs his My Word show.

Across the weekend, you’ll also find Alan Leach’s Indie Bingo & Quiz, club nights, pool parties, Beach Day Rave, Fierce Panda Stage, Tonic Mental Health Stage and loads more.

Plus, with fairground rides, gaming, arcades, bowling, snooker, bars and restaurants, the party doesn’t stop when you leave the stage.

THE FESTIVAL WITH YOUR OWN BED

Forget tents, mud and camping. Your festival package gives you three nights at Butlin’s Skegness, putting you right in the middle of the action for the whole weekend — with a proper bed waiting when you finally call it a night.

With Minehead selling out in record time, we strongly recommend booking early.

Deposit scheme available.
