The artist line-up announcement follows news that the electronic music festival would be moving locations next year, having previously operated from Victoria Park in East London for the past four years as a one-day event run by All Points East.
Last month, (October 10), they announced that in 2025 they’ll be moving to Brockwell Park, joining a string of other festivals taking place at the south London park including Wide Awake, Cross The Tracks, Mighty Hoopla and City Splash.
They’ve also announced a new date, with Field Day 2025 set to take place on Saturday May 24 as part of the Brockwell Live Bank Holiday Weekender.
