All Points East 2026: Nia Archives, Elmiene & Sunday Service Choir, Westside Gunn Join Jorja Smith & Tems

All Points East 2026 is shaping up to be an unmissable event, with a fresh wave of artists joining the bill headlined by Jorja Smith and Tems. The festival is set to take place in London’s Victoria Park, kicking off on Friday, August 21.

Already boasting headliners like Lorde (August 22), Deftones at Outbreak Fest (August 23), Tyler, The Creator (August 28, 29), and Twenty One Pilots (August 30), the festival has now expanded its lineup even further. Previous announcements included rising stars like Kwn, Ayra Starr, and Odeal, all of whom have been featured in the NME 100 list.
Nia Archives

Among the new additions is Nia Archives, the Bradford-born DJ, singer, songwriter, and record producer. The 24-year-old junglist is fresh off winning a MOBO award in 2022, being shortlisted for the BBC Sound of 2023, and making BRITs history as the first junglist to receive three nominations in a single year in 2025.
Elmiene

Also joining the lineup is British soul artist Elmiene, a former NME Cover star, who recently released his debut album ‘Sounds For Someone’. He will be performing with the Sunday Service Choir. UK R&B artist Destin Conrad, another NME Cover alum, will also be taking the stage.

Other notable additions include Westside Gunn, known for his collaborations with MF DOOM, A$AP Rocky, Gorillaz, and Tyler, The Creator, as well as multihyphenate artist Uncle Waffles.

London's very own UK garage legend DJ EZ is also set to perform, alongside Birmingham-born R&B songwriter and producer Wesley Joseph, and former NME Cover stars Bellah and Sekou.

Tickets are currently available for purchase here.

Jorja Smith released her second studio album, ‘Falling Or Flying’, in 2023, and recently celebrated the 10th anniversary of her debut single, ‘Blue Lights’, with the release of ‘Don’t Leave’.

Tems released her debut album, ‘Born In The Wild’ the following year and later shared a surprise EP, ‘Love Is A Kingdom’.
