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.

To help make the event more affordable, Splendour is also bringing back its monthly Payment Plan options, allowing customers to split the cost of their ticket across the 10 months until the festival.

A 10% Nottingham City Residents discount will also be offered along with free tickets for children aged 10 and under, and cheaper Youth tickets for ages 11-17.  

Actor Vicky McClure, regular attendee who took to the Splendour main stage two years running with the heartwarming Our Dementia Choir, led the celebrations.

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.”

The Super Early Bird Pre-sale will be available exclusively to mailing list subscribers for an hour beforehand.  Sign up on the Splendour website for access.
