News: Mighty Hoopla Announces First Wave Of Artists For Its 10th Birthday

Ten years of pop perfection. Ten years of unforgettable performances. Ten years of crowds united by positivity and love.

Now, the UK’s biggest pop festival, Mighty Hoopla, is marking its milestone 10th birthday in 2027 with a spectacular first wave of artists announced today, promising its biggest and boldest celebration yet.

Leading the celebrations on Saturday will be global pop superstar Robyn, bringing her iconic catalogue of dancefloor anthems to Brockwell Park. Sunday will welcome international pop royalty The Pussycat Dolls, delivering a hit-packed headline performance.

Saturday also welcomes legendary hitmaker Kelis, while US pop sensation Bebe Rexha takes to the stage on Sunday.

Joining this incredible first wave of artists for 2027 are an all-star collection of pop favourites, including FLO, Nicola Roberts, Eve, Sophie Ellis-Bextor, Icona Pop Jordin Sparks, Alcazar and B*Witched. And this is just the beginning, with many more exciting acts still to be revealed for Mighty Hoopla’s 10th birthday celebrations.

Since launching in 2017, Mighty Hoopla has grown into one of the UK’s most loved and unmissable festival experiences, bringing together tens of thousands people every year to celebrate queer joy, freedom, acceptance and the power of pop. A vibrant celebration of individuality and self-expression, Hoopla has become so much more than a music festival, championing the very best in pop, dance, arts, queer culture and everything in between.

Following its biggest-ever edition in 2026, attracting more than 60,0000 festival-goers from both the UK and Europe, Mighty Hoopla is gearing up to make its 10th birthday year truly unforgettable.

Co-founder Glyn Fussell says: —These past ten years have been the biggest privilege of my life. In a world that can often feel hostile and scary, we have created a celebration of life at its most joyful at Hoopla. It blows my mind daily, and I take protecting it in all its glorious technicolour more seriously than anything. If I could look back at that young, queer, pop-obsessed kid and tell them this would be possible, I wouldn’t have believed it. That is why we won’t stop creating this beautiful space for you all to come and play.”

Co-founder Jamie Tagg adds: —It’s wild to think that 10 years ago we couldn’t even get a bank loan because no one thought the festival was a good idea. Now we have some of the biggest names in music wanting to perform on our stages. Having Robyn and The Pussycat Dolls headline is a real pinch-me moment and a genuine honour for us. June can’t come soon enough.”

And as always, there’s plenty more to discover beyond the main stages.

Returning to the festival in 2027 is The Bump, Mighty Hoopla’s huge dance arena that bringing together some of the world’s most exciting DJs and live performers for another unmissable celebration of dancefloor culture. Headline performances will include returning favourites Girls Don’t Sync along with some very special guests including Nina Sky, Bridge and US vocalist of the moment Ultra Nate.

Also returning is Queertopia, Mighty Hoopla’s dedicated stage celebrating the next generation of exciting LGBTQ+ talent, shining a spotlight on the best emerging artists and performers from across the queer community. This year’s line-up will feature artists worthy of any festival main stage such as Tom Rasmussen, Empress Of and Tsatamis.

With a decade of unforgettable pop memories behind it, and over 100 more acts still to be announced, Mighty Hoopla is ready to make 2027 its biggest and best year yet.
