Outbreak Festival announces 2025 lineups for London and Manchester editions

Outbreak Festival has unveiled the first wave of artists set to play in 2025, which will see it have editions in both Manchester and London for the first time. 

Knocked Loose, Alex G, and Slowdive are set to headline over two days in Manchester - the original home of the hardcore and punk weekender - while the likes of Danny Brown, Denzel Curry, Militarie Gun, and julie will also be making appearances. 

Kicking things off the day before, meanwhile, will be a special Outbreak event in London, headlined by hardcore crossover stars Turnstile as part of Victoria Park’s new Summer series, LIDO Festival. Joining Turnstile in the capital are a host of artists also due to play the Manchester edition (Alex G, Danny Brown, Feeble Little Horse and more), ensuring the South gets a true taste of the Outbreak experience. 

Outbreak Festival in partnership with LIDO will take place on Friday 13th June 2025, while the Manchester edition will be on 14th and 15th June at Bowlers Exhibition Centre. Tickets for both events will go on sale at 10am this Friday, 29th November, here.
