2000trees are going bigger than ever for 2025 with five headliners across three days.
Taking place in Cheltenham on July 9 – 12, 2000trees have been teasing their first announcement for days, and have just revealed that the bill-toppers for this year's instalment are Kneecap and PVRIS (co-headlining Thursday), Taking Back Sunday and Coheed And Cambria (co-headlining Friday) and Alexisonfire closing things on the Saturday.
"Alexis is very excited to be playing 2000trees next year," says Alexisonfire frontman George Pettit. "Let it be known, by the time we are done playing there will be significantly less trees."
"This is quite literally the biggest 2000trees announcement we’ve ever done," says festival booker James Scarlett. "We’re delighted to bring some huge classic bands in, that we’ve been after for years, for their long-awaited first ever Trees performances. We’re also honoured to usher in the likes of PVRIS and Kneecap for their first ever UK festival headline performances. Tickets are already flying out, and to say it’s going to be a legendary year is an understatement. Miss 2000trees 2025 at your own peril."
But it's not just the headliners announced today, 2000trees have added a ton of bands across the weekend including Kid Kapichi, RØRY, La Dispute, Bambie Thug, GEL, Heriot, Employed To Serve and the reunion of Frank Turner's former hardcore band Million Dead.
2000trees hits Upcote Farm in Gloucestershire on July 9 – 12. Stay tuned to Kerrang! for further line-up announcements.
