Yungblud – has announced the third installment of his long-awaited, curated festival Bludfest

Internationally renowned rock star Yungblud has announced the third installment of his long-awaited, curated festival: Bludfest for June 27th, 2026.

Following the 28-year-old’s record-breaking triple Grammy Rock nomination and win for Best Rock Performance, plus the release of his latest body of work, Idols II, the singer has unveiled plans for Bludfest Year 3, which will kickstart the festival’s global takeover in Hradec Králové, Czechia near Prague.

The multifunctional Park 360 (located 100 km east of Prague, 190 km from Wrocław, 400 km from Berlin, and 110 km from Vienna) will host the event, featuring the British superstar as headliner.

In a huge announcement, Scottish rock heavyweights Biffy Clyro and psychedelic icons Primal Scream have been revealed as part of a lineup which features indie-pop favourites Pale Waves, art-rock trio Palaye Royale, and Atlanta rapper Destroy Lonely. Also added are “Ouija Pop” Irish breakout Bambie Thug and London-based Leap.

Fresh from collaborating with Lil Yachty, Jesse Jo Stark also joins the bill, alongside rising talents Nieve Ella and Pam Rabbit.

Tickets for Bludfest Year 3 go on general sale at 10:00 am GMT (11:00 am CET) on Friday, February 27, preceded by a 24-hour pre-sale window opening Thursday, February 26, at 9:00 am GMT (10:00 am CET). Tickets can be found at bludfest.com.

This year in Hradec Králové, the experience goes beyond the stages. While Bludfest remains a one-day festival, Year 3 gives fans the chance to camp the night before and the night of the event, with a range of camping and glamping options available.

Speaking about Bludfest Year 3, Yungblud said: “We have such an incredible fanbase in Czechia. They are one of the best audiences in the world.”

“The reaction we got from a potential announcement when I said it on stage over there was so big and so electrifying, it kind of cemented that it would be the first international Bludfest. It’s going to be an incredible show.”

He added, “It feels so crazy to have planted a seed two years ago in Milton Keynes that has now grown roots and expanded all the way to Czechia. It cemented the idea that anything is possible when you never take no for an answer and you have a community that will follow you anywhere. I’m really lucky.” 

Fans can look forward to the return of the festival’s most iconic features, from the much-loved Make A Friend Tent, where solo festival-goers can connect, to the signature giant ferris wheel and the Beautifully Romanticised Accidentally Traumatized pop-up. Yungblud’s Bludbeer will be back on site, and Gibson returns as sponsor, unveiling a third stage. Bludfest continues to push boundaries with top-tier, multi-genre line-ups at an affordable price, offering a unique festival experience rooted in community and inclusivity.
