Lily Allen will headline Boardmasters festival this summer, where she will perform her break-up album in full.

Her addition comes after an explosive reaction to her 2025 album West End Girl, which provides a brutally honest take on the breakdown of her marriage to Stranger Things star David Harbour.

The singer will join DJ Fatboy Slim and rock band Kasabian in topping the bill in Newquay, Cornwall between 5 to 9 August.

Lily's set for a busy year, having already scaled up a tour of smaller venues to add full-size arenas due to demand.

She will also join Scissor Sisters in headlining Mighty Hoopla festival in London's Brockwell Park in May.

Her first album in more than seven years became one of the most talked about records of the year.

It went on to claim number two in the Official Charts last October, while its candid lyrics sparked endless memes and viral videos.

Lily's return also led to her receiving three nominations for the upcoming Brit Awards, including Artist of the Year.

But next August she will swap making waves for being beside the sea at Boardmasters, with more than 50,000 people expected to attend the festival.

The Kooks, Loyle Carner and Tinie Tempah are among the artists who have already been announced for next summer's line-up.
