Few months ago they were negotiating for a show in Croatia in June, but deal is off. And according to some users from Download forum and reddit, Andy Copping said that NIN will have a show in UK in June. Andrej, pretty reliable user also have a information about June tour.
 

Let’s wait and see.

To be honest I imagine they planned on touring but aren't going to after all.

Problem is all that info is months old. Who knows if the plans have been scrapped.

Perfectly plausible that they're at Mad Cool, but I find it insane that MC have managed to keep it under wraps since LP seem to actually be allowing places to tease the announcement and Mad Cool want to scream their line up from the rooftops as early as possible.

I imagine a reason they're being so quiet is they have some sort of legal case with the government/council about the noise complaints/issues with the venue, might explain lack of dates/teases. 

 

No clue if that's been cleared though?

 

I might just end up booking NOS Alive if they have LP/Olivia and another decent headliner, because MC haven't even officially announced dates, but let's face it they're communication is always dreadful.

Is Mad Cool usually this quiet in confirming whether or not they're still at thing?

They usually at least confirm the dates and actively post that the festival is at least happening. 

 

They've also been quite notorious for leaking artists who are touring, AM being one, I think the Strokes as well? So if they have good news they like to scream about it.

 

But the lineup does tend to come out mid December so until we get past that date, then I'll perhaps hold off from wondering what is happening.

I guess we'll wait and see. It's been mentioned they can have their odd difficulties and it's been mentioned 2025 is yet to be confirmed, but it feels like it would be a surprise for it not to be a thing. Not a guarantee though so I guess we've just gotta wait and see.

MC 2025 is so quiet that seems dead, I Hope not

 

We can envision a strong undercard if we look at other festival confirmations, something between those could be at MC2025:

 

WEEZER, ST. VINCENT, FUTURE ISLANDS, NOAH KAHAN, KHRUANGBIN, AMYL AND THE SNIFFERS, KORN, JUSTICE, LONDON GRAMMAR. THE LAST DINNER PARTY

 

The first great if, right now,  is if LINKIIN PARK will be or not, asumming GD is out and OLIVIA is in

 

The second great big if is if there will be a 3-day or a 4-day festival

 

Time is runnng out, if they want reach Christsmas market, announce must be in next 15 days...

Korn is playing Resurrection Fest and has been announced as their only show in Spain in 2025.

I think it will be happening because they've been doing a competition to get bands to play it on Insta over the last few days. They do seem suspiciously quiet at present though

Linkin Park are available only on Sunday after their Paris show and Mad Cool usually ends on Saturday so I would say very unlikely…

    • 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
    • Another Kraftwerk one for me today, as just back from seeing them.    
    • Completed my 2026 survey. Put down Super Furry Animals as my most wanted for next year but suspect the moment has gone for that. Popped a big shopping list in the box for who else you would like to see. 🙂
