Greenpeace is bringing the spirit of its celebrated Glastonbury Field to London this November with Action All Areas, a new night of live music, activism and creative resistance at the Roundhouse. Taking place on Thursday 26 November 2026, the one-night event will feature exclusive performances from James Bay, Self Esteem and Jade Bird, with further artists and a special guest host still to be announced.
The event takes its inspiration from the Greenpeace Field at Glastonbury Festival, which has provided a platform for live music, DJs, artists and activists for more than three decades. Action All Areas aims to bring that same combination of music and activism indoors, creating a night where performers and audiences come together around Greenpeace’s ongoing campaigns on climate, oceans and the right to protest.
For more than 50 years, Greenpeace has used peaceful protest and public campaigning to push for environmental change. The organisation’s presence at Glastonbury has become an established part of the festival, with previous performances from artists including Peter Doherty, Fatboy Slim, Idris Elba, Nova Twins, Moonchild Sanelly, Lambrini Girls, Myles Smith, Bimini, Mel C and Tim Burgess.
At the Roundhouse, James Bay, Self Esteem and Jade Bird will bring three distinctive musical voices to the event.
Platinum-selling, BRIT Award-winning and GRAMMY®-nominated singer-songwriter James Bay joins the bill for an exclusive performance, while Self Esteem, the acclaimed project of Rebecca Lucy Taylor, returns to the Greenpeace stage following previous appearances at the Glastonbury Field and the 2020 digital edition of Action All Areas.
Also appearing is Jade Bird, whose blend of modern Americana and emotionally direct songwriting has established her as one of the UK’s distinctive contemporary singer-songwriters. Her most recent album, Who Wants To Talk About Love?, explores inherited patterns and personal relationships through a collection of expansive, emotionally charged songs.
The name Action All Areas deliberately plays on the backstage access pass, transforming the idea of exclusive access into an invitation for collective participation. The event’s central message is that tackling the climate and ocean crises requires action across every part of society, while also defending the right to protest as an essential part of a functioning democracy.
Music has long provided a soundtrack to social and political movements, and Greenpeace sees the combination of live performance and activism as a way of creating space for audiences to engage with issues beyond the concert itself. Action All Areas will bring artists, activists and audiences together for an evening centred on creative expression and collective action.
The event also represents the latest stage of Greenpeace UK and Roundhouse‘s existing relationship. Their partnership began three years ago through the Roundhouse Live Event Experience internship, a four-month career development programme delivered with the Jamal Edwards Self Belief Trust.
The programme supports young people aged 21–25 who face barriers to entering the live entertainment industry, giving participants practical experience behind the scenes at the Roundhouse and through Greenpeace’s festival production work. Interns have the opportunity to work across events including Glastonbury and Latitude.
Action All Areas therefore brings together two strands of the partnership: Greenpeace’s history of using creativity to engage audiences with environmental campaigning and the Roundhouse’s commitment to developing the next generation of creative and live-event professionals.
Luke Cordingley, Creative Producer at Greenpeace UK, says the event is designed around the connection between music, creativity and the ability to campaign for change. “Bringing a high-impact event like Action All Areas to London is all about energy and intentionality. Protecting our right to protest is intrinsically linked to our ability to secure real climate action – without the freedom to stand up and demand change, the planet loses its loudest defenders.”
Natasha Haddad, Head of Music at the Roundhouse, describes the event as a natural progression of the organisations’ existing work together, with the venue set to welcome Self Esteem, James Bay and Jade Bird to its stage in support of Greenpeace’s mission.
Self Esteem says the event reflects the community and collective spirit at the heart of live music, adding that protecting the right to protest and the planet is essential.
Jade Bird also welcomes the opportunity to perform at the Roundhouse, describing the venue as one of her favourites in London and highlighting the importance of music as a vehicle for change.
With further performances, a host and additional campaign collaborations still to be announced, Action All Areas promises to extend the atmosphere of the Greenpeace Field beyond the festival season and into the heart of Camden.
Greenpeace Action All Areas takes place at the Roundhouse, Chalk Farm Road, London NW1 8EH, on Thursday 26 November 2026 with member presales at 10am on 8th October followed by a general sale at 10am on 9th October.
