AceShowbiz - Deftones will headline the highly anticipated All Points East x Outbreak festival in London on August 23, 2026, supported by an impressive line-up including Interpol, AFI, Mannequin Pussy, and many more.

Following the initial announcement in November that Deftones would top this year’s event, the festival has steadily revealed a diverse roster of artists. Early confirmed acts included IDLES, Amyl & The Sniffers, Esdeekid, JPEGMAFIA, ¥øu$Uk€ ¥uk1mat$U, Basement, Wisp, Deafheaven, and Show Me The Body.

The latest additions bring indie rock icons Interpol and goth rock veterans AFI to the stage, along with Philadelphia punk band Mannequin Pussy. The lineup further expands with witch house pioneers Salem, techno innovator Blawan, and alt-rock trailblazer Ecca Vandal, an NME 100 graduate.

Festival organizers have hinted at more artists yet to be announced, promising an even richer experience for attendees. Tickets are already available, with anticipation building around the full lineup.

In addition to Deftones headlining on August 23, All Points East 2026 will feature Lorde as the headliner on August 22. Following Deftones, Tyler, The Creator will deliver a headline two-day takeover, while Twenty One Pilots will close the festival on August 26.

The 2025 edition of All Points East showcased major acts such as The Maccabees, Raye, Cleo Sol, SAULT, Chronixx, Chase & Status, and Barry Can’t Swim, setting a high standard for this year’s event.

Fans of Interpol can also look forward to potential previews of new music during their All Points East appearance. Guitarist Daniel Kessler revealed in a recent interview that the band is "very far along" with their follow-up to 2022’s The Other Side Of Make-Believe. He expressed excitement about the album’s progress and its anticipated release next year.

Deftones frontman Chino Moreno has previously praised Interpol’s debut album, Turn On The Bright Lights, describing it as a defining record where everything “just comes together” and highlighting its lasting impact on music.

Meanwhile, AFI released their twelfth studio album, Silver Bleeds The Black Sun…, last year. Rolling Stone Australia lauded the album for its "dreamy-haunt" atmosphere and artistic evolution, further solidifying the band’s enduring relevance.

With such a varied and high-profile lineup, All Points East x Outbreak 2026 promises to be a landmark event for music lovers, combining genre-defining acts and emerging talents for an unforgettable festival experience in London.
