Early guesses 

 

Justin Timberlake 

Luke Combs 

Chris Stapleton 

Duran Duran 

Depeche Mode 

Paramore 

Calvin Harris 

Fred Again 

Iron Maiden (50th anniversary) ( unlikely but going for a wildcard) 

Sam Fender 

Blink 182 

 

Not all of them obviously but just some suggestions who might be touring next year.

Some Kpop band ( sorry not familiar with KPop) 

Paramore

Interesting. I think they could be a shout for Finsbury Park, but selling out 2 nights at the O2 last year and the likely popularity boost from being Taylor Swift's support act could make them a shout.

 

I was going to suggest Muse for this. Toying between whether I'd expect them at Reading or at this.

Some very good suggestion's there. Would be pleased to see the below

 

Paramore or Blink 182 - (Feels right and likely cheaper then Slam Dunk)

Depeche Mode -  (One of the few UK festivals that will pay the money)

Sam Fender - (Saw him open on the unbranded Dylan/Young date and must be a tick box gig to go from opening the main stage to headlining it)

 

I also would not be surprised if Muse turned up here.

 

Chuck in a K pop act and some onelike Timberlake and Bobs your uncle.

 

I wonder if having a country star will become a thing?

Depeche Mode won't be active in 2025. They're off their touring cycle. 

 

Can't see blink 182/Paramore doing it, not enough of a draw.

 

It'll be a lot more legacy acts too with probably a k-pop act as that seems to be the move for BST.

Blink 182 and Paramore could easily do BST with a solid undercard I reckon.

Yeah, I think the Eras tour has sent Paramores stock through the roof. I think they would be a very smart booking for BST and the band.

 

I was shocked by how well they were received when I saw Taylor at wembley. Their set went down as well as if they were the headliner.

Paramore will want a long break after the never ending tour. They always deliver live though.

Agreed. They seem happier in themselves, they went down well at Eras shows generally and those shows will get them a decent crowd. So I think there's a strong possibility of them being about next year.

Well they're playing Middle East shows in December and nearly did festivals this year according to the Pinkpop organisers, so I think there's a not zero possibility of them being around.

one of the band members wives said they were taking the year off

Was this comment for "taking the year off" for 2024 or 2025? Because they haven't played shows since last October but do have shows in December, which by default is taking a year-plus off.

 

I guess we'll get more of an indication soon tbf.

You’re certainly missing some women there.

Iron Maiden has announced London Stadium June ..28th(?)

JT has announced Chelmsford Racecourse for July 4th

Both dates are potential BST Hyde Park dates

So I’ll say scratch them off…

Timberlake's perhaps more of a surprise. Would've thought he might have been likelier to do this. A 3-run of IoW, Chelmsford and Lytham imo is a bit more random, as I've said elsewhere.

    • Not necessarily but it should be, Download have a habit of messing it uo when others get the bookings on point. Good Charlotte I doubt are playing 3rd down and that too 3 that day while dreamy is too strong. I think you'd have one another day to help sell weekend tickets. I also doubt Papa Roach play. 
    • Here's a bit of a wild stab, few placings may be off, and for all I know half of these won't actually be touring next year, but screw it, it's a bit of fun   Pyramid: Sabrina Carpenter, Phoebe Bridgers, TBA (Florence + The Machine), Garbage, The Last Dinner Party, Interpol, Alex James Britpop Classical Other: Chase & Status, Teddy Swims, Clairo, The Kooks, Zara Larsson, Kingfishr, Sports Team, Orbital West Holts: Robyn, Baby Keem, De La Soul, Deltron 3030, JID, Dua Saleh, kwn, Daniela Latila Woodsies: Bonobo, Darkside, TBA (Tame Impala), Laufey, Warmduscher, Wednesday, The Lottery Winners, The Royston Club, Florence Road Park: Patti Smith, Super Furry Animals, Slayyyter, The Cardigans, Skye Newman, Kelly Lee Owens, Teen Jesus & The Jean Teasers   Pyramid: Harry Styles, The xx, Richard Ashcroft, The Pogues, Jessie J, Sigrid, Travis Other: Rosalia, Sombr, Mitski, Alex Warren, Holly Humberstone, Cat Burns, Pale Waves, Yard Act West Holts: Basement Jaxx, Elyanna, Clipse, L’Imperatrice, Nation of Language, Jim Legxacy, Yazmin Lacey, RIP Magic Woodsies: Suede, Chvrches, Bleachers, MUNA, The Cribs, Keo, Bleech 9:3, The Lilacs Park: MARINA, Magdalena Bay, Jacob Alon, TBA (Lily Allen performs West End Girl), Getdown Services, Isaac Wood, Snail Mail, Madra Salach Pyramid: Sam Fender, Hozier, David Byrne, Cher, Obongjayar, David Gray, Billy Ocean Other: Doja Cat, Deftones, Addison Rae, Ren, Viagra Boys, Maisie Peters, The Reytons, Hard Life West Holts: Kano, Thievery Corporation, Angine De Poitrine, Thee Sacred Souls, Brooke Combe, Sasha Keable, Master Peace Woodsies: The Wombats, Metronomy, Geese*, Dry Cleaning, EsDeeKid, Sienna Spiro, Cowboy Hunters, Radio Free Alice Park: Big Thief, Laura Marling, MJ Lenderman, Richard Dawson, Oklou, Maruja, Dead Dads Club, Ratboys   *There's always one band booked for Woodsies that ends up being massively under-billed and gets shut down really early. They'd be better off playing somewhere like Other sub, but I could see the G getting them to play a smaller stage while it's still possible
