Latitude has a rep for being one of the UK’s more civilised music festivals, as known for its family-friendliness as it is for its dedicated comedy headliners. But while the Suffolk fest might not exactly be riotous (indeed, that’s part of its appeal), it’s always packed with massive names. The likes of Grace Jones, Nick Cave, Patti Smith and Pulp have all headlined over the years.
Latitude is one of the standout events in the UK festival calendar – and this year’s edition is looking as solid as ever. Henham Park will once again welcome a whopping 45,000 daily festivalgoers to see the likes of Kasabian, Keane, London Grammar and Duran Duran.
Planning on heading to Latitude 2024 this weekend? From headliners to remaining ticket availability, here’s everything you need to know.

When is Latitude Festival 2024?
Latitude this year will take place from Thursday July 25 to Sunday July 28 2024.
Where is Latitude Festival 2024 and how do I get there?
The festival takes place in Henham Park, which is near Southwold in Suffolk. The festival advises attendees not to arrive on foot – instead, here are the different approved ways of arriving.
Car
The festival is between the A12 and the A145, and there will be clear instructions for those arriving by car. Car parking is included in the price of the ticket.
There are also designated pick-up and drop-off zones, which will be clearly signposted.
Coach
Big Green Coach is Latitude’s official travel partner, with plenty of pick-up locations including Colchester, Ipswich, London Stratford, London Victoria and Norwich.
You can book a Big Green Coach here.
Train
The nearest train station is Halesworth. Note that there is no direct train between Halesworth and London – you’ll need to change trains at Ipswich.
Shuttle bus
Shuttles run from Halesworth, Southwold and Kessingland and can be booked in advance here.
Who are the headliners for Latitude 2024?
As is so often the case with Latitude, this year’s headliners are an all-British affair. On Friday rockers Kasabian headline, on Saturday it’s London Grammar and Keane, and on Sunday Duran Duran close-out the Obelisk Arena.
Full Latitude lineup and set times
Below the headliners, the rest of Latitude’s line-up is full of exciting names including US experimental rap duo Armand Hammer, Brummie indie poppers Swim Deep, American singer-songwriter Julie Byrne and trance royalty Evian Christ. Here’s the rest of Latitude 2024’s line-up and set times.
