The live event is set to return to Upcote Farm, near Cheltenham, between Wednesday July 9 and Saturday July 12.

The new announcement comes following the first wave of artists being confirmed back in October, when organisers, for the first time in the festival’s history, announced all of the headliners simultaneously. These included Kneecap, PVRIS, Taking Back Sunday, Coheed And Cambria, Alexisonfire, Million Dead, Kid Kapichi, Bambie Thug, Gel, RØRY and more.

Now, 45 new names have been added to the bill, including Scottish duo VUKOVI and Irish garage punk band Sprints – each of which are firm festival favourites and are making their way up the bill for 2025.

“It’s been two years since we last played 2000trees, and to play a prime spot on the main stage feels so right to us,” said Janine of VUKOVI. “Best festival, sound people and passionate fans.”

Birmingham punk duo Big Special have been announced for the 2025 instalment too, as have Welsh post-hardcore band Future Of The Left, UK dance-punk group SNAYX, indie quintet Panic Shack, and metal-pop band Blood Command.

@Vukoviband, @SPRINTSmusic, @dangeroussummer, @BIGSPECIAL_, Baby Lasagna, and 40 more PHENOMENAL bands are joining the 2000trees 2025 lineup!!

Other new names joining the 2025 line-up include rising UK acts Vower, Meryl Streek and Unpeople.

“We’re confident our penultimate announcement cements 2000trees 2025 as THE rock festival to be at this summer,” said 2000Trees head booker James Scarlett. “This is one of the few places you can see not only some of the most exciting names and absolute legends of the scene, but also an undercard rammed with ‘your new favourite bands’.”

“Artists like Vukovi have been woven into the history of 2000trees for over eight years now so it’s amazing to see them stepping up to one of the biggest slots on the Main Stage, alongside bands like Sprints who you could find on our smallest stage only two years ago, now headlining our second stage.”
