The Horrors, Shame, Katy J Pearson and more to play North Shields' A Stone's Throw Festival 2025

A Stone’s Throw Festival has confirmed that this year’s event is taking on the full May bank holiday weekend for the very first time, with indie-noir favourites The Horrors set to headline the festival’s inaugural opening party. 

Due to take to the stage at The Exchange 1856 on Friday 23rd May, the band - who recently returned with their sixth album, ‘Night Life’ - will top a TBA bill of exciting supports, ahead of Lanterns On The Lake’s performance at King Street Social Club on Saturday 24th.

And that’s not all: the two special shows will act as irresistible appetisers for the weekender’s winning Sunday programme, via which punters will be treated to sets from the likes of post-punk trailblazers Shame, folk-pop purveyor Katy J Pearson, buzzy newcomers Man/Woman/Chainsaw and many more.

Tickets for A Stone’s Throw 2025 will take place from 23rd-25th May across multiple North Shields venues. You can find out more and nab tickets via the festival’s website, and check out the full lineup poster below.
