A sneak peak at the line-up for next year’s Tramlines festival may have come through a selection of tinned beans.

Following a sold-out success at their 2025 edition of the beloved Sheffield music festival, Tramlines partnered up with S6 Food bank, offering a potential sneak peak at the 2026 line-up in exchange for donations.

Names of artists and bands who may be gracing the start-studded line-up have appeared on cans of beans offered out the festival-goers and music fans who signed up to the mailing list and those who go to donate to the S6 food bank between 11am - 1pm today.

So far, through ‘spilling the beans’ 90s dance DJing legend ‘Fatboy Slim’ has been rumoured as a potential 2026 headliner along with some indie-festival favourites and Tramlines veterans, including Manchester’s ‘Courteeners’ and Stockport’s ‘Blossoms’.

If true, it would be both bands third time playing the festival.

Sheffield’s own ‘Reverend and The Makers’ have been spotted on the uniquely packaged beans following their triumphant hometown headline at Don Valley Bowl’s Rock and Roll Circus in 2025.

And bringing some classic 80s pop sing-alongs to Hillsborough Park in 2026 could be none other than Rick Astley, who following his Glastonbury performance, has proved himself to guarantee festival set packed with fun.

Kaiser Chiefs also make an appearance the amongst the line-up, maintaining a bit of Yorkshire spirit amongst the bill.

A spokesperson for the festival said the food bank campaign continues Tramlines’ commitment to local causes, with further activities to be explored throughout the year.
