SMK Live has announced The B Stage, a second performance space that will host DJ sets throughout the inaugural two-day festival at Stadium MK on Saturday 27th and Sunday 28th June 2026.
Located by the Food Village, The B Stage adds a new dimension to what is already shaping up to be one of the most packed events in the stadium’s history. On Saturday, party facilitators SoulGood take over with sets from Welsh talents Paul Lyons, The Tribe of ViBE, and Luna Amani. Sunday sees DJ, producer and TV personality Marcel Somerville headline the stage, joined by DJ Twist and Kaptin & Dregz.
The B Stage announcement builds on a festival bill that has been growing steadily since Basement Jaxx were first confirmed as headliners back in December. Alongside the electronic duo, the Main Stage will host Black Eyed Peas (UK Festival Exclusive), Jason Derulo, Cat Burns, Clean Bandit, Groove Armada, Jalen Ngonda, Katy B, Jax Jones, Moonchild Sanelly, Maverick Sabre, Jaguar Skills, and Big Narstie. Bimini and Big Narstie will also host the festivities across the weekend.
As previously announced, Saturday 27th June will also see Stadium MK host one of the country’s biggest England vs Panama World Cup screenings, with the match broadcast live on the stadium’s giant screens. The game will be available to ticket holders only, with no separate viewing tickets issued, and a surprise guest has been confirmed for a special halftime show.
Housed inside the 30,000-capacity Stadium MK, SMK Live is billed as a full festival experience rather than a sit-down concert. Organisers promise street-food villages, activation zones, two stages, top-tier production, open spaces to explore, and hospitality offerings across both days.
For a limited time only, tickets are on 50% off flash sale until midnight on Sunday 31st May. Day Tickets are available from as little as £30 + booking fee and Weekender Passes from £45 + booking fee. Group tickets (for those aged 14 and above) offer six people entry for the price of five, bringing the cost of a general admission pitch standing ticket down to £62.50 per person (excluding booking fees).
Family packages are also available, covering two adults and two children aged 5 to 14. Each child’s ticket is priced at just £10 (excluding booking fee), though children under 14 are not permitted in the pitch standing area. For those looking for a premium experience, four tiers of hospitality packages are available, starting from £150.
