The Big Moon and Kae Tempest join Wunderhorse as headliners of Deer Shed Festival 2025
This Summer’s knees-up will be the North Yorkshire fest’s 15th anniversary edition.

Deer Shed Festival has confirmed that indie favourites The Big Moon and acclaimed poet Kae Tempest will be heading up this year’s 15th birthday celebrations, joining previously-announced rock rising stars Wunderhorse to complete 2025’s trio of headliners.
Proudly independent and family-friendly, Deer Shed has spent the past decade-and-a-half carving a reputation as one of Northern England’s best fests, and this year is shaping up to be no different; both The Big Moon and Kae Tempest have received Mercury Prize nods for their work, while Wunderhorse emerged as one of 2024’s most hotly-tipped breakout acts.
Elsewhere on the lineup, Dublin garage-punks Sprints and South London trio Honeyglaze will bring the energy to Baldersby Park, while exciting emerging names like Maruja, Mandrake Handshake, and Jacob Alon are sure to win themselves crowds of new fans. Plus, punters will also be treated to a whole host of comedy performances (including sets from Reggie Watts, Frankie Monroe and John Shuttleworth) alongside myriad musical ones. Win win!
Deer Shed Festival 2025 will take place from 25th-28th July in Baldersby Park, Topcliffe, North Yorkshire, and tickets are on sale now. Find out more and nab yours from the festival’s website, and check out the full lineup - as confirmed so far - below.
