ArcTanGent has added another wave of acts for 2027, led by Elder, with Russian Circles and Brutus confirmed as Wednesday co-headliners. The announcement lands less than two months after the festival named Neurosis and Blood Incantation as the first main stage headliners for its move to Todenham Manor Farm.
The new names were revealed on 4th November, following last year’s sold-out festival. Russian Circles and Brutus will top the early-entry Wednesday, and 2027 will be their first ArcTanGent appearances since 2023. Brutus called the booking a UK exclusive festival show, exactly 10 years after their first appearance at the festival.
Also announced today are Faetooth, Future of the Left playing a 20th anniversary set of Curses, SubRosa, who reformed after splitting in 2016, Hippotraktor, Kong, who reformed after breaking up in 2011, and A-Tota-So. The full list from today’s announcement also includes Bloed, Cold Night For Alligators, Death Goals & Tunic, Earth Moves, Earthside, hubris., Ihlo, Lancing Hand, paper hats and Speedial.
They join an already stacked bill at the new Cotswolds site. Blood Incantation headline Thursday and Neurosis headline Saturday, two of the most requested debuts among ArcTanGent fans. The Wildhearts will play an exclusive progressive set, while Employed to Serve will mark the 10th anniversary of The Warmth of a Dying Sun. Slift, The Ocean, Messa, Conjurer, Holy Fawn, Møl, Psychonaut and Lowen are also already confirmed. Conjurer and Psychonaut both appeared on the ArcTanGent 2026 line-up.
The main festival runs from Thursday 19th to Saturday 21st August 2027, with a limited number of advance tickets for Wednesday 18th August available only with a 4-day ticket. It is the first time in the festival’s history that it has left Fernhill Farm. ArcTanGent 2026 was headlined by Primus, Chelsea Wolfe, and Cult of Luna & Julie Christmas performing Mariner.
Organiser James Scarlett said it felt like “an immense privilege” to be announcing two Wednesday co-headliners a few months after the first sold-out ArcTanGent, with ticket sales for next year “already miles ahead of where they’ve EVER been at this time of year.” He added that Future of the Left and Kong have both released “some of my personal, genuine all-time favourite albums,” and said the team “can’t wait to begin the next chapter at our new home.”
Brutus said: “We’re extremely happy we can come back to ArcTanGent, exactly 10 years after our first show. This will be a UK exclusive festival show, we hope to see you all there!”
Russian Circles said they are “always honoured to be asked to play at ArcTanGent,” and that the festival’s growth “has really made such a cultural impact.” They called the 2027 line-up “a true testament to the festival’s legacy of artistry and integrity,” and said they are looking forward to the new site.
Todenham Manor Farm is near Moreton-in-Marsh, Gloucestershire. Organisers put the drive at about two hours from London, an hour and 25 minutes from Bristol, and about an hour from Birmingham. Travel details are on the ArcTanGent website.
