One Love / One Sun 2027 returns to Bentley Estate, near Lewes in East Sussex, on 20–22 August 2027, and the festival has already announced a sizeable first wave of artists. Aba Shanti-I, Saxon Sound System, The Cimarons, O.B.F Sound System, Jumpin Jack Frost, Ray Keith and Mixmaster Morris lead the bill, with Early Bird weekend tickets at £115 and parking free for the first time in 13 years.

The announcement lands barely six weeks after the 2026 edition wrapped up in the Sussex woods. Rather than sit on the line-up until spring, organisers have gone early – a nod, they say, to the people who snapped up Loyalty Tickets and Early Birds before a single name was confirmed.

Who's playing One Love / One Sun 2027?

The festival splits its music across three distinct areas, each with its own flavour, and the first wave fills out all three.

One Love: roots, dub and sound system

This is the cultural core of the weekend, and it's heavy on British sound-system history. Aba Shanti-I headlines alongside Saxon Sound System, one of the foundation names of UK sound culture, and The Cimarons, whose story stretches back to reggae's earliest days in Britain.

They're joined by Birmingham's Luv Injection, Love Express Sound, Sir Coxsone Outernational, Nottingham pioneers V Rocket International, Supercharge Sound System, All Tone Rockers Sound System, Earl Gateshead and festival founder Dan Wiltshire on the decks.

One Sun: ambient, dub techno and jungle

Head deeper into the trees and the sound shifts towards electronics. Geneva's O.B.F Sound System share the area with two giants of UK jungle, Jumpin Jack Frost and Ray Keith, while ambient pioneer Mixmaster Morris and Balearic stalwart Chris Coco handle the slower end of the spectrum.

Also confirmed: UK dub figure Nick Manasseh, Bristol's Peter D Rose, Drum Club Sound System, Qualitex Sound System, AU, FURU and Stika. It's the part of the site where the festival's two currents – dub and dance – start bleeding into one another.

Lively Up Yourself: open format and selector culture

The third area keeps things loose. Original Spiral Tribe DJ Sanchia Izbek leads a bill that includes Ross Harper, Gosia, Superclaud, a Future Sounds Radio Showcase, Kezza Inna Jungle, Princess Nadene and Scratchalus & Empress Reggae.

How much are One Love / One Sun 2027 tickets?

Early Bird weekend tickets cost £115 and are on sale now via onelovefestival.co.uk. The first run of Loyalty Tickets has already been snapped up. Beyond the headline price, the festival is making a point of trimming the extras that usually push a weekend's real cost up: under-12s go free, car parking is free for the first time in 13 years, and the bar is being pitched closer to local-pub prices than the usual festival mark-up.

Founder Dan Wiltshire is clear this isn't about going budget. "The point isn't to be cheap," he says. "The point is to keep it accessible while making the festival better."

What else is coming?

Organisers say this is only the opening salvo, with more artists, sound systems, live acts and selectors to be added over the coming months. Given the strength of this first drop, that's a promising sign for a festival that has carved out a genuinely distinct lane between reggae, dub and the UK's underground electronic scenes.

If you've been curious about One Love / One Sun, 2027 looks like the year to take the plunge – and £115 for the full weekend with free parking is hard to argue with.
