Homelands was a British music festival which consisted mainly of Dance music, both live acts and famous DJs. The event was held near Winchester, Hampshire, and was one of the most popular British festivals of this genre. It was run by Live Nation UK.

A Scottish edition of the Homelands festival also existed. In 1999 a Homelands Scotland occurred at the Royal Highland Showground near Edinburgh. In 2000 a similar event occurred close to New Cumnock in the south of Scotland.

The organisers of Homelands were also behind the Home Nightclub in London.
