No Art Liverpool is returning for 2026 after its debut edition sold out in 2025, with the open-air electronic event set to take over Otterspool Promenade again on Saturday 8 August 2026. Organisers have already confirmed that pre-sale tickets will go live via Skiddle from 1 May, and fans are being urged to register early because demand is expected to be high once again.
The new edition looks set to be a bigger step up rather than a simple repeat. Organisers say an increased capacity has been approved for 2026, while promising upgraded production and a carefully curated programme, even though the full line-up is still under wraps for now.
That should only add to the buzz around an event that has quickly carved out a place on Liverpool’s summer calendar. No Art’s return to the waterfront follows what organisers describe as a completely sold-out first year, and the 2026 comeback is being positioned as another all-day celebration for the city’s electronic music crowd.
The festival will once again be held at Otterspool Promenade, bringing the No Art brand back to one of Liverpool’s most distinctive outdoor settings. Skiddle’s event listing says the show is scheduled to run from 12pm until 11pm, giving the day a full open-air festival format rather than a shorter outdoor concert setup.
While the names on the poster have not yet been revealed, organisers say a major announcement is expected in the coming weeks. They are also teasing a much bigger overall show for year two, suggesting the focus is on scaling up the experience without losing the quality and safety standards that helped the debut land so strongly.
Anyone hoping to get in early can register now through the official No Art sign-up page. More basic event details are already confirmed too, with No Art Liverpool 2026 billed as an outdoor, all-day festival returning to Otterspool Promenade on Saturday 8 August.
