C2C Country to Country 2025 at London’s O2 Arena: set times, full lineup and everything you need to know

Everyone loves a bit of country. Even people who say they hate it will get up and dance to ‘Before He Cheats’ and sing along to ‘Jolene’. The only issue is that country music is best enjoyed together, and most of the biggest country artists are rooted back in the US. That’s what makes Country 2 Country so great.

Country 2 Country (or C2C) is a festival held each year in Europe to allow non-American country fans to get together and hoedown. There are events in various cities across the continent, but the biggest is in London’s O2 Arena, as it has been since 2013. Imagine Reading and Leeds except there are loads of cities, proper toilets, and everyone’s a country fan. What’s not to love?

The festival will take place across three days, starting tomorrow, and have some pretty exciting names including Dierks Bentley, Cody Johnson, and breakout star Shaboozey. Here’s everything you need to know about C2C this weekend at the 02 arena.

When is Country 2 Country 2025?

The festival begins on Friday March 14 and ends on Sunday (March 16). Doors begin opening for the smaller stages at 12pm on Friday, and 10am on Saturday and Sunday, with the main stage opening at 4.30pm every day.

There are seven stages in total across the venue, so there’s plenty to do to keep you occupied while you wait for your faves in the main arena auditorium.

How to buy tickets

If that lineup has you wishing you had tickets, don’t fear. Tickets did sell out a little while back, but luckily there are a few available on resale. You can buy a three day pass for as little as £180, but be quick! There’s no knowing how long resale tickets will be available for. You can see what tickets are available for the whole weekend, as well as single days, on C2C’s website here.
