The organisers of a Nottingham festival that was cancelled this year have confirmed its return for 2025.

Splendour Festival will return to the picturesque grounds of Wollaton Park for the summer of 2025, with more than 30,000 music fans set to join the party on 19th and 20th July. 

The festival has become renowned for its genre and era spanning line-ups, most recently bringing acts including Noel Gallagher, Anne-Marie, Confidence Man, Sugababes, Craig David, Sam Ryder, The Vaccines, Becky Hill, Antony Szmierek, Madness and Rudimental to Wollaton. 

Super Early Bird tickets, frozen at the 2022 price of £85 (plus fees), will be available via an exclusive pre-sale from 11am on Friday, September 27.

She said: “Splendour is back!  It’s that happy time in the Nottingham calendar we all get together, sing, dance in the best park on earth!  Can’t wait!!”

Claire Ward, Mayor of the East Midlands, also hailed the event’s return, saying: “As one of the region’s most cherished summer events, Splendour not only brings incredible live music and entertainment to the beautiful grounds of Wollaton Hall & Deer Park, but also showcases the creativity and vibrancy of our community.

“Beyond the joy it brings to residents and visitors alike, Splendour plays a vital role in supporting our local economy—boosting our hospitality sector, providing a platform for local businesses, and contributing to Nottingham’s reputation as a destination for world-class events.”

George Akins MD of festival organisers DHP Family said: “We’re very pleased to announce the dates for Splendour 2025 and proud to be able to contribute such an important event to our area.

“Everyone at DHP is working hard behind the scenes and looking forward to revealing more about what’s in store over the coming months.”
