The UK festival season is rapidly approaching, and with the weather picking up, we’re getting ourselves ready for an absolute belter of festivals this year. Sure, the big names will always pull the headlines, but we’re here for the acts bubbling under — the ones playing tucked-away tents and early-afternoon slots, bringing the real magic.

Truck Festival may be smaller than the likes of Glastonbury, but it packs in huge heart and character. This beloved Oxfordshire weekender has a grassroots, village fate vibe that’s truly one-of-a-kind. It’s big and varied enough to never get boring, yet intimate enough to feel friendly rather than overwhelming. Year after year, its easy-going atmosphere and all-ages crowd make Truck feel like a proper summer staple for UK indie fans.

It’s 2025, and on any given night in Britain you might wander into a backroom pub or tiny club and catch the next big thing – if that venue is still open. Our grassroots music venues – those small, beloved stages where countless artists play their first gigs – are facing an unprecedented crisis.

Reading’s back for another August Bank Holiday blowout, and the 2025 line-up is coming in strong. It’s loud, it’s loaded, and it’s got the kind of energy that turns muddy fields into chaos in the best possible way.

Latitude 2025 is back this July, taking over Henham Park once again with a line-up that’s looking genuinely exciting. Whether you’re here for the iconic headliners or to discover something new, this year’s bill has a real mix to shout about.
