John Summit is gearing up for a huge moment in 2026. The globally acclaimed DJ and producer will bring his famous Experts Only experience to the UK for the very first time. The exclusive open air showcase will take place on 11 July at the enchanting Tofte Manor in Bedfordshire, delivering a milestone event for both Summit and Labyrinth Events.
The appearance marks Summit’s debut UK open air headline show, making it one of the most anticipated dance events of the summer. Because of this, excitement is already soaring as fans prepare for a day built around high energy music, bold production and the signature Summit atmosphere.
A New Era for Tofte Manor’s Festival Series
Labyrinth Events has now confirmed Summit as the final addition to its 2026 Tofte Manor lineup. This solidifies the venue’s growing reputation for intimate yet innovative programming. Surrounded by woodland and natural beauty, the estate will host a custom outdoor setup created especially for Summit’s dynamic style.
The all day event promises immersive staging, elevated sound, and an environment crafted to push creative boundaries. With each announcement, the Tofte Manor series continues to evolve into one of the UK’s most forward thinking boutique festival offerings.
John Summit’s Global Rise Continues
Summit’s appearance at Tofte Manor comes during a defining chapter in his career. Recently, he sold out the O2 in London and achieved an instant sellout at O2 Academy Brixton. In the United States, he launched the Experts Only Festival NYC, which drew an impressive 50,000 attendees to Randall’s Island.
His musical impact stretches even further. He has earned more than 1.5 billion global streams, secured multiple number one hits on US dance radio, and performed at some of the world’s most iconic venues including Madison Square Garden and the Kia Forum.
The Evolution of the Experts Only Movement
Experts Only has quickly become a global phenomenon. From Ibiza takeovers to large scale US gatherings, each edition transforms unconventional spaces into high intensity rave experiences. The concept is built on creativity and freedom, and its arrival at Tofte Manor is set to elevate the series even further.
Attendees can expect two unique music areas, striking visual design, wellness elements, and curated food and drink from local partners. Because of these details, the event feels more like a complete journey than a typical festival.
Closing Out a Standout 2026 Season
John Summit’s show will serve as the finale for the 2026 Labyrinth Open Air series. It follows headline events from The Kooks, Sasha and John Digweed and the Sugababes, confirming Tofte Manor as one of the UK’s most exciting boutique festival destinations.
As fans count down to July, one thing is clear: the Experts Only debut at Tofte Manor is shaping up to be a defining moment for UK dance culture.
