blk. announced as Emerge Belfast Sunday headliner

Tipperary-native and DJ blk. has been announced as the Sunday headliner for next summer's Emerge festival in Belfast.

blk. has built a substantial fanbase around Ireland over the last few years, playing the mainstage at Longitude for three years in a row, performing his own Boiler Room set at the Teletech festival in 2024, and last March, hosting a massive St Patrick's day party at the 3Arena.

Emerge announced that the festival will be taking place at Boucher Road in Belfast from August 29 - 30, 2026. Today, the Sunday lineup was announced with several b2b and b3b sets to take place, including blk., Basswell and Vieze Asbak; blk. and Restricted; blk. and Winston; and many more. The Saturday lineup is yet to be released.

Last year, the Emerge Belfast headliners included Fatboy Slim and Bicep, along with other electronic music performers such as HorsegiirL, Jazzy and I Hate Models.

Tickets for next summer's Emerge Belfast festival go on sale tomorrow, December 5 at 12pm and are available here.
