Some of my favourites you haven't mentioned: Into It. Over It., Spanish Love Songs, Los Campesinos, Manchester Orchestra, Sweet Pill, Blank Atlas, NOBRO, Movements, Cherym

Ah strange one - I'll try again later 👍

Think it's been locked to the creator only but I fancied looking earlier so did the below: Educated guesses have been made for a couple of bands who are also playing Wednesday (as their Wednesday stage shows on the website) but I've based this on where the spaces are. I've also guessed which stages will clash and haven't really put any thought into the placements / clashes in the Forest as these are so unpredictable.

Yeah - same for me. Movements are Thursday on the poster but Friday on the website. The Friday would make it 8 & 8 for the Cave so I'm really hoping that's correct to balance out the Friday a bit. It's actually a great line up for me but way too much condensed into the Thursday evening... Ha! For anyone looking for some smaller bands, I really recommend: Into It. Over It., Sweet Pill, Blank Atlas, Cherym, Michael Cera Palin, Single Mothers, unpeople, Every Hell

They switch it up dependent on the headliners. So for instance, Better Lovers are less likely to have overlapping fans with Gaslight Anthem than Hot Mulligan are... I think they'll put Empire State Bastard up against The Chats & Wargasm up against Don Broco (potential for shared fanbase there, but the same with Creeper). So I think they'll do the Cave v Main all three nights too...

They had some last minute issues with releasing the last one so I think this will be back to the morning. I reckon 10... But possibly 11.

Some predictions (/hopes) for the announcement (I don't think we'll get the final headliner yet)... Los Campesinos!, The Menzingers, Drug Church, Bleed From Within, Stray From The Path, SeeYouSpaceCowboy, Bilmuri, The Callous Daoboys, Dying Wish, Gel, King Prawn, The Subways, Speed, Tellison

SLEEP TOKEN, A Day to Remember, Spiritbox, Papa Roach, Creed Tenacious D, Dropkick Murphys Taking Back Sunday Dillinger Escape Plan BLINK 182, Architects, Turnstile, Neck Deep, Knocked Loose Bullet for my Valentine, Mastodon Denzel Curry Power Trip IRON MAIDEN, Slayer, Trivium, Killswitch Engage, Coheed and Cambria Incubus, Pierce The Veil New Found Glory Primus

Could probably swap them and PinkPantheress actually...

Headliners: Tyler The Creator, Olivia Rodrigo, Green Day Subs: Jamie T, Biffy Clyro, Chase And Status Chevron: PinkPantheress, Four Tet, The Streets R1: Tate McRae, D-Block Europe, Phoebe Bridgers, FR: The Front Bottoms, Yard Act, The Chats

Think we've got similar tastes - you should definitely check out The Scratch

I'd like: Turnstile Sleep Token Kneecap Maisie Peters JME Sabrina Carpenter The Front Bottoms Lucy Dacus The Story So Far The Scratch

The Chats is a bizarre headliner but I very rarely watch the Trees headliners and it's certainly not what sells me my ticket. Cracking announcement in terms of undercard and a huge amount of bands I don't know which is only ever a good thing at Trees as my music taste often ends up being shaped by their line up nowadays... Into It. Over It. are my dream Trees booking!

The line up is coming, they've just had a few approval issues to work through. From one of the organisers on FB...

Yeah that's definitely possible! And I agree that the above is too strong altogether - it's a combination of wishful thinking and listing a pool of bands who are around/suitable/unavailable. I'm sure we won't get all of them...
