Drum and bass legends Rudimental are heading to Delamere Forest for a huge outdoor concert on Thursday 17 June 2027, as part of Forestry England’s Forest Live summer concert series.
The chart-topping electronic trio will make their debut at the Cheshire woodland venue, bringing their high-energy live show to the forest for what promises to be one of next summer’s biggest dance music events in the region.
They will be joined by special guests Girls Don’t Sync and MJ Cole, with tickets going on general sale at 10am on Friday 16 October.
Formed in Hackney, East London, in 2010, Rudimental have become one of the UK’s most successful electronic music acts, known for their distinctive blend of drum and bass, jungle, soul, grime and electronica.
The group, made up of childhood friends Piers Aggett, Kesi Dryden and Leon ‘Locksmith’ Rolle, first burst onto the music scene with their 2012 number one hit Feel the Love, featuring John Newman.
Since then, they have sold more than 25 million singles and three million albums worldwide, amassed over five billion streams and achieved three UK number one singles and two number one albums.
Their impressive catalogue includes collaborations with some of music’s biggest names, including Ed Sheeran, Ella Eyre and John Newman, while their success has earned them BRIT and MOBO Awards alongside a Mercury Prize nomination.
The trio have continued to evolve their sound, with their fifth album, RUDIMENTAL, featuring tracks including Dancing Is Healing and Green & Gold, alongside collaborations with Popcaan, Idris Elba, Khalid, MIST and rising stars including Charlotte Plank and Venbee.
Fans attending the Delamere Forest concert can expect an electrifying performance combining DJing, electronic production and live instrumentation, with the trio showcasing their musical talents across guitars, bass, drums and keyboards.
The Delamere date forms part of three Forest Live performances announced for June 2027, with Rudimental also returning to Thetford Forest on 16 June before heading to Cannock Chase on 27 June.
The group previously performed at Forest Live concerts at Thetford Forest and Westonbirt Arboretum in 2016, making their upcoming shows a long-awaited return to the popular concert series.
Forest Live has welcomed more than 2.5 million music fans over the past 25 years, bringing major artists to spectacular woodland settings across England.
The concert series also supports the work of Forestry England, with money raised helping to maintain the nation’s forests, support conservation projects and plant new trees.
Rudimental join previously announced 2027 Forest Live headliners Ronan Keating with Blue, and Madness with Scouting For Girls.
A limited PayPal customer presale begins at 10am on Wednesday 14 October, ahead of general ticket sales opening at 10am on Friday 16 October.
