The festival, which began in 1998, will take place at Hill Farm in Steventon, Oxfordshire, from July 23 to 26. It will also see The Wombats and The Libertines headline, while Primal Scream, Kaiser Chiefs and The Vaccines are among the other bands announced this evening (November 24).

Guitarist Felix White suggested that some new material could be on its way next year, too. He told William Hill Sports Book Of The Year Award earlier this month, “Having those shows in next year means we’ve got enough time to think about it and see which way it’s going to go. If The Maccabees keep going beyond that point, we’d want to feel like a functioning band that are making music and are there for a reason.”
CMAT, meanwhile, released her critically-acclaimed third album ‘Euro-Country’ in August, and is also set to headline festivals including End Of The Road and LIDO in 2026 following a year that’s seen her ascend to headline status.

Drummer Dan Haggis said, “We’ve played Truck a few times now and it never disappoints, it’s always a highlight of our summer and we’re so excited to be back headlining it again in 2026.”
