New family festival Blume Summer Camp has announced its first acts for 2027. Founded by Hideout co-founder Dan Blackledge and musician and creative director Molly Blackledge, the festival will debut at Stapleford Estate in Leicestershire from 6–8 August 2027.
The first artists announced include Trash club night founder Erol Alkan, 6 Music presenter and DJ Jamz Supernova, DJ Luke Una, Auntie Flo, Daudi Matsiko and Alice Boyd.
The festival says it has programmed headliners to play earlier in the day to match the family festival vibes.
The site will include multiple areas, including Spiritual, which brings together wellness and movement; Base Camp, curated with Henry Brydon of Outside Kids and dedicated to outdoor adventure; and Food at Blume, among others, the festival says.
Dan Blackledge, co-founder of Blume Summer Camp, says: “We spent a few years searching for the right site, all over the world, and ended up finding it in our own backyard in Rutland. The landscape really inspired Blume, along with our desire to spend more time outside, with the kids and without them.
“We want more music, more growing, gardening and cooking over fire with mates around. More making things with our hands, less rushing around, and enough space for the kids to find the magic that’s already there.”
Tickets will go on sale on Tuesday 17 November 2026 here.
