Lewes Music Festival 2025

Now in its fourth year, the Lewes Music Festival has become the place to be for any music lover in Sussex and beyond. Incredibly well-supported by the local community, the surrounding areas, and even farther afield by fans, the festival has grown from strength to strength.

The lineup promises every year to outdo the better, and the bar keeps getting higher. From main stage national and international artists through to local upcoming bands, artists, and DJs, Lewes Music Festival gives a platform to a wide array of talent. This year isn't going to be an exception either, with a great lineup to be announced. The headliner and new bands will be named shortly.

Dates to Remember

Camping and Glamping: Entry opens on Thursday, 6th June 2025.
Music and Entertainment: The main event begins on Friday, 7th June, with a brilliant exclusive warm-up party for Friday campers. The music continues right through the weekend, with Saturday, 8th June, promising to be an epic lineup of artists, while Sunday is the 90s Revival Day with nostalgia and some iconic hits live on stage.

What's New This Year?

Camping and Glamping Options: For the first time this year, glamping will be available to give you a bit more comfort as an attendee. Camping runs from Thursday through Sunday to let you make the best of the weekend. Keep your tummy happy with great breakfasts, coffee, and more.
DJ Tent: New for the festival, this will be home to a blistering lineup of DJs who will keep the vibes alive across the weekend.

Fun for All

Food and Drink: A really eclectic mix of street food to suit every taste, and bars serving up local South Downs cider, cocktails, and much more. Entertainment: A small funfair for kids; giant garden games for grown-ups; and a bustling shopping and retail area, full of individualist finds. 90s Revival Day: Relive the golden generation of music with one day purely dedicated to 90s hits to get everyone dancing.
