Catherine Jackson-Smith of RADAR comments that the festival has wanted to book Arcane Roots since the event began, and that their return from hiatus made the booking possible. She also notes the return of Unprocessed, Volumes, The Algorithm, and Textures, alongside new bands.
The festival is introducing a new space called The Geezer’s Arms, which will operate as a pub run by a collective named Pintglass.
RADAR Festival 2027 will be held at Magna, a former steelworks now operating as a science adventure centre in Sheffield.
