You just can’t keep Kings of Leon out of the UK at the moment. The Nashville band, after a year in which they toured some of Britain’s biggest arenas and played a huge set at London’s BST Hyde Park, are now lined up to headline another huge UK fest in 2025.
In huge news for any rock fan on the south coast (or any rockers who may be partial to travelling down), Kings of Leon will be headlining Victorious 2025 in Portsmouth – and that’s not all. Equally massive bands Queens of the Stone Age and Vampire Weekend will also head up Victorious’ 2025 bill.
Elsewhere on the lineup so far are the likes of Michael Kiwanuka, Nelly Furtado, Bloc Party, Madness and the Last Dinner Party, plus many, many more.
Victorious 2025 will take place on the August Bank Holiday (August 22-24) – here’s everything you need to know about the fest, from tickets to the full lineup so far.
