Pitchfork Music Festival London adds DIIV, Panda Bear & Sonic Boom and Thaiboy Digital
Pitchfork Music Festival London has unveiled a second wave of names for its 2026 edition, with DIIV, Panda Bear & Sonic Boom, Thaiboy Digital and Robert Lester Folsom among the artists joining the city-wide programme this November.
The sixth edition of the festival runs across London from Monday 2 to Sunday 8 November, with shows taking place at independent venues including the Roundhouse, Village Underground, ICA, MOTH Club and The Cause.
DIIV will join the Dalston Takeover on Saturday 7 November, appearing alongside Psychedelic Porn Crumpets, Mandy, Indiana and Working Men’s Club. The multi-venue East London event has also added Sarah Meth and Sex Mask to a sprawling bill that includes Midwife, Maria BC, Freak Slug and Robber Robber.
A Roundhouse pairing for The Avalanches
Friday 6 November will see The Avalanches play the Roundhouse with Panda Bear & Sonic Boom, whose collaborative live set brings the pair together for one of the festival’s largest bills. Arushi Jain will also appear as DJ support.
Elsewhere, Thaiboy Digital headlines Village Underground on Saturday 7 November, while Scottish artist Steven Hall brings his Nirosta Steel project to the ICA the same evening. Performing the double LP My Skyscraper, Nirosta Steel’s set will draw on material spanning four decades of disco, folk and synth-pop experimentation.
American songwriter Robert Lester Folsom is also set for an intimate ICA show on Thursday 5 November, joined by Star Moles and Sean Solomon.
Venue upgrade for MGNA Crrrta and daine
Several previously announced events have also expanded. MGNA Crrrta and daine move their Wednesday 4 November show to Village Underground, where Touching Ice has been added to the line-up. The sold-out takeover from ear at The Cause on Thursday 5 November will now feature Charlie Osborne and Ship Sket.
Pitchfork London Selects completes its MOTH Club residency with a newly announced Wednesday showcase featuring Rockie Rode, The Healing Power of Horses and Any Young Mechanic.
