3 Week Countdown to Birmingham’s DanceOnArrival Summer Opening Festival

Over two venues and across three stages at Luna Springs and XOYO Birmingham – including the lush roof garden – 4,000 house music fans are set to descend on DanceOnArrival’s street party on Saturday 30th May to celebrate house music in all its glory, with sets from Armand van Helden, TeeDee, Route 94, Enzo Is Burning, Smokey Bubblin’ B, plus rising UK and West Midlands’ talent.

DanceOnArrival returns to Birmingham on Saturday 30th May 2026 with the Summer Opening Festival, uniting Luna Springs and XOYO Birmingham for an all day, open air street party. Bringing together global icons, UK favourites and emerging regional talent, the event marks the brand’s first Birmingham appearance since last year’s sold out summer closing party with an increased capacity of 4,000 people, aiming to kickstart festival season with a celebration of house music in a two venue, three-stage takeover.

At Luna Springs, American house legend Armand van Helden tops the bill, bringing decades of era defining anthems to Digbeth’s outdoor dancefloor. He’s joined by Sheffield bassline favourite TeeDee as a special guest, alongside London’s high energy house and garage selector Smokey Bubblin’ B. Zak Gayford and James Cooper complete the stage’s heavyweight

Inside XOYO Birmingham’s Main RoomRoute 94 leads the charge with his signature deep, rolling house cuts, joined by Enzo Is Burning for a night leaning programme designed for dancers who want to stay locked into the groove. Together, they bring a darker, club focused contrast to the festival’s open air atmosphere.

Up on XOYO’s Roof Garden, the spotlight turns to rising talent and local heroes. Among much talent, highlights include Leamington Spa duo French & Lou who’ll bring the momentum of their Ibiza debut at Abode at Eden last summer, while Birmingham’s own Rosie Allen – known for her gritty, underground selections at AFTA DARK – will keep the terrace moving as the city skyline glows around 360 degree views. With lush greenery, stylish lounges, and a panoramic vantage point over Birmingham, the Garden invites clubbers to unwind and connect with nature while indulging in the vibrant energy of the city.

DanceOnArrival’s return follows its Birmingham summer closing party at Luna Springs last September, which featured L.P. Rhythm, Elliot Schooling, Liam Palmer and Omar+. Known for connecting iconic spaces along a single street, the brand continues to expand its vision with increased capacity, two venues, three stages and a curated lineup celebrating deep house anthems, Ibiza classics and future stars.

Final release tickets are now on sale priced at £45 plus booking fee, plus the last remaining VIP backstage tickets are also available from Tixr.
