Boomtown Festival has shared its first lineup phase for 2025.
Boomtown, one of the UK’s largest electronic events and widely regarded as one of the country’s best festivals for drum & bass, will return to its longtime home at the Matterley Estate, near Winchester, from August 6-10, 2025.
Though the festival has routinely tapped performances from the high-octane genre’s leading selectors since its inception in 2009, Boomtown is also known for its extensive lineup of acts across a variety of musical flavors, from house, techno, and garage to punk rock, hip-hop, and more.
This year’s edition, dubbed “Power of Now,” will host headline electronic performances from revered downtempo duo Maribou State, heralded breakbeat and rave act Overmono, drum & bass favorites Hybrid Minds and Rudimental, jungle revivalist Nia Archives, viral house sensation James Hype, underground legend Honey Dijon, and UK clubland darling Jyoty.
Also slated to headline are Sex Pistols, featuring three-quarters of the original band with vocalist Frank Carter, as well as Jamaican party starter Sean Paul and surging rapper Azealia Banks.
Elsewhere on the lineup are top house and techno players like The Blessed Madonna, Jayda G, 999999999, Anfisa Letyago and I Hate Models, and in-demand UK garage and bass acts like “flight fm” producer Joy Orbison, genre supergroup Girls Don’t Sync, and the Boomtown return of People Just Do Nothing cast Kurupt FM.
Check Boomtown’s full 2025 lineup below. Over 600 more artists will be added to the lineup in the coming months.
This year’s festival will feature over 50 stages and Boomtown’s expansive festival site comprises nine distinct districts, each with its own themed art installations, buildings, activities, and colorful cast of performers.
