London Grammar will headline LIDO Festival 2025 in London this summer – find all the details below.

The trio, whose fourth album ‘The Greatest Love’ arrived last year, are set to play a bill-topping set at Victoria Park in the capital on Sunday June 15. Their upcoming performance is billed as a London festival exclusive.

They’ll be joined on the day by a host of support acts including Celeste, Roísín Murphy and The Blessed Madonna. Elsewhere on the line-up is Pip Millett, Wasia Project, Maverick Sabre, Neil Frances present Club NF, Dan Whitlam, Holly Walker and Clementine Douglas.

Tickets go on general sale at 10am GMT this Friday (January 31) – you’ll be able to buy yours here. Alternatively, fans can access a pre-sale at the same time on Thursday (January 30) by signing up here.

LIDO Festival will span two weekends in its inaugural year, with the full line-up and schedule yet to be announced. It has already been confirmed that Jamie xx will headline the event this summer, with Charli XCX set to curate her Party Girl festival there too.

Additionally, LIDO is due to host the new London leg of Outbreak Festival – which will be headlined by Turnstile.

LIDO Festival will boast “carefully curated music line-ups alongside community-driven activities during the week, all with a strong emphasis on sustainability”.

Operated by AEG Presents, which also puts on All Points East, BST Hyde Park and Forwards, LIDO promises to “showcase the most current headliners and work closely with them to curate the line-ups, reflecting their own musical passions, with a strong focus on emerging artists”.

Jim King, CEO of European Festivals at AEG Presents, said: “LIDO Festival represents the next stage of AEG’s festival journey. Taking place at Victoria Park, one of our favourite locations in the heart of London’s creative districts, LIDO Festival allows us to push our ambitions further in working with young people within the industry and those who aspire to be. Most excitingly, this centres about a new generation of artists, whether they’re headlining or performing for the first time.

“The vision of supporting the artists’ journey further develops as we program each day directly with the headliner. This delivers a show that fans know has the artists’ musical soul embedded throughout. This is one of the most exciting aspects of LIDO Festival, knowing that everyone on the bill means something to the headliner closing out the show.”

London Grammar will also play at Boardmasters 2025 in Cornwall this summer, alongside the likes of RAYE, The Prodigy and Nelly Furtado.

Meanwhile, LIDO Festival 2025 performer Róisín Murphy last year said that the backlash to her contentious comments concerning puberty blockers “wasn’t that bad”. In August 2023, the singer shared a comment on Facebook using her personal account, criticising the use of medicines to delay the changes of puberty for transgender and gender-diverse youth.
