Charli XCX to Headline First U.K. Festival With Curated 2025 ‘Party Girl’ Event in London

25 November, 2024

Charli XCX is bringing her Party Girl series to London next summer with a huge outdoor show. Charli will curate a day at LIDO Festival in east London’s Victoria Park on June 14, 2025, as well as put on a headline performance – marking her first U.K. festival topline slot.

Joining her on the lineup so far are recent collaborators including A. G. Cook, Bladee, The Japanese House, The Dare, as well as 070 Shake and Kelly Lee Owens, with many more names still to come.

Tickets for the event go on sale on Friday (Nov. 29) from Charli’s official website at 10 a.m. (GMT). Charli is hte second headliner announced for LIDO Festival in its debut year, following the news that Jamie xx will also curate a lineup for the event the weekend prior (June 7).

Charli has hosted various iterations of her Party Girl series, which feature performances from both DJs and live acts. Last week she took over New York City’s Times Square for a pulsating pop-up performance in the heart of Manhattan, having previously taken the series to Ibiza earlier in the summer.

Later this week Charli will kick off a headlining arena tour throughout the U.K., starting in Manchester at the The Co-Op Live on Wednesday (Nov. 27) before heading onto London’s O2 Arena, Birmingham’s BP Pulse Live and then finishing at Glasgow’s OVO Hydro.

The announcement continues Charli’s sensational 2024, which has seen her reach new heights after over a decade on the pop scene. Her Brat album has been nominated for seven Grammys at the upcoming ceremony in February, including a nod for album of the year. She recently went on a co-headlining tour throughout U.S. arenas with Troye Sivan and pulled double-duty on Saturday Night Live as host and the performing musician.
