Award winning festival returns on 24 May 2025
Dot To Dot Festival is set to return to Bristol for its 20th year on 24 May 2025 and they have just dropped the news that special guests THE HORRORS return to the bill for the celebrations along with FAT DOG, SPRINTS, KATE BOLLINGER, LÅPSLEY and over 30 of the hottest emerging artists of the moment.
Following their hugely successful 2024 event, winning Best Metropolitan Festival at the 2023 Festival Awards, and receiving a nomination for the same award once again in 2024, the festival has firmly established itself as a core date in the music calendar for discovering emerging artists since the very first edition in 2005, and this news sets precedent for a hugely successful 20th anniversary party on the May bank holiday!
THE HORRORS are set to return to D2D stages as special guests for the 20th edition of the festival, following their appearance headlining in 2018. This follows the announcement of their first album in 7 years ‘Night Life’, set for release on 21st March, with new configuration featuring core duo singer Faris Badwan and bassist Rhys Webb, joined by their founding guitarist Joshua Hayward and new members, keyboardist Amelia Kidd and drummer Jordan Cook. Their recent release ‘Trial By Fire’ described by CLASH as ‘’A Gothic journey through East London environs after midnight’’, gives a taste to what D2D audiences can expect with this fresh lineup.
Tickets are £30 or £33.60 including booking fees and are available here.
