AceShowbiz - British singer-songwriter Jorja Smith and Nigerian sensation Tems have announced a collaborative headline performance at this summer’s All Points East festival in London. The special one-off show will take place at Victoria Park on August 21, 2026, marking the official start of the festival's lineup.
The event is curated by Jorja Smith and her label FAMM, working in partnership with All Points East organizers. Alongside the two headliners, the lineup will include rising stars Kwn, Ayra Starr, and Odeal, with additional artists expected to be revealed in the upcoming months.
All Points East 2026 promises a diverse range of performances, with Smith and Tems joining other major acts scheduled for the festival. Notable headliners following their show include Lorde on August 22, Deftones on August 23, Tyler, The Creator with a two-day set on August 28 and 29, and Twenty One Pilots closing the festival on August 30.
Tickets for the special show will be available to the general public starting March 13 at 10 a.m. via the festival’s official website. An American Express presale is currently active, while an All Points East presale is set for March 12 at 10 a.m.
Tems has been on a remarkable trajectory in recent years. Earlier in 2026, she achieved her first No. 1 on the Official U.K. Singles Chart with the collaboration "Raindance" alongside Dave. The single dominated the chart for two non-consecutive weeks and currently holds the No. 65 spot on the Billboard Hot 100, having steadily climbed since debuting at No. 89 on the chart dated February 7.
The Nigerian artist's rise includes a Grammy win in 2025 for Best African Music Performance with "Love Me Jeje." Her critically acclaimed debut album, Born In the Wild, was released in June 2024, solidifying her status as a global star.
Jorja Smith continues to build on her success following the 2023 release of her second studio album, Falling or Flying, which reached No. 3 on the Official U.K. Albums Chart. Since then, she has maintained a strong presence on prominent festival stages, including a notable appearance at the 2025 Glastonbury Festival. Additionally, Smith has earned nominations at the MOBO Awards, reflecting her sustained impact in the music industry.
The All Points East festival has become one of London's premier summer events since its 2018 debut, attracting around 40,000 attendees per night. The 2025 edition featured headliners such as RAYE, Chase & Status, The Maccabees, Barry Can't Swim, and LCD Soundsystem across two weeks of performances.
The collaboration between Jorja Smith and Tems at All Points East 2026 highlights the festival’s commitment to showcasing powerful and influential artists. Fans can expect an unforgettable evening as these two acclaimed performers share the stage in one of London’s most anticipated summer music events.
