Michael Bublé will headline Friday night

Five-time Grammy Award winner Michael Bublé has been announced as one of the headline acts for next year's Lytham Festival.

Next year marks the 15th anniversary of the event, which returns from 1 to 5 July.

Bublé will headline Friday night of the five-day event - one of only three of his mainland UK performances in 2026.

British electronic duo Pet Shop Boys, American singer and Grammy nominee Teddy Swims, and rapper, singer, songwriter and actor Pitbull are also set to play at the annual music festival.

Bublé has sold more than 75 million albums worldwide with six multi-platinum albums, and more than 14 billion global streams.

He has also performed in more than 30 countries.

"He is without a doubt one of the world's most beloved and celebrated performers," Lytham Festival co-founder Peter Taylor said. "And I have every confidence this will be an incredible night on the Fylde coast."

Details of the Thursday night headliner and more special guests are set to be revealed soon.
