The first line-up announcement for next year's Dot To Dot festival has arrived!
Returning for its 20th year, the twin-site festival will take place in various venues across Bristol and Nottingham on the May bank holiday weekend.
Leading the line-up are special guests The Horrors (pictured), who return following their headlining slot in 2018, along with Fat Dog and Sprints. Other names among the 41 acts confirmed today include Big Special, Kate Bollinger, Låpsley, Nimino, Honeyglaze, Adore, Ain't, Baobei, Basht, Bradley Marshall, Bruise Control, Cardinals, Daste, Dog RAce, Ethan Tasch, Girlband!, and Good Health Good Wealth. Dot To Dot Festival booker Scott Kennedy said:
"We’re buzzing to announce the first set of names for Dot To Dot Festival 2025. As is tradition, we're platforming new artists who have played the festival before to come back and headline, following the footsteps of artists like Wunderhorse, Yard Act, Squid, Jockstrap and more. Now in its 20th year, Dot To Dot has always been at the forefront of championing new scenes and sounds, nurturing the festival headliners of tomorrow. Over the years, everyone from Dua Lipa to Sam Fender have played D2D, performing in all forms of intimate (often dingy) venues. It's a really special festival and we are very proud to announce our 20th edition."
