British singer-songwriter Yungblud has confirmed that his festival, Bludfest, will return for a second year at the National Bowl in Milton Keynes.

The inaugural event, held earlier this year, attracted 30,000 fans with its mission to make music more accessible, offering tickets at just £49.50 in an era of soaring festival prices.

The 2024 lineup featured big names such as Lil Yachty, Soft Play, Nessa Barrett, The Damned, Lola Young, Jazmin Bean, Noahfinnce, Jesse Jo Stark, Landon Barker (son of Blink-182 drummer Travis Barker), Hannah Grae, and Aziya.

Set to return on June 21, 2025, Bludfest will once again be headlined by Yungblud himself. Joining him as main support is Australian alt-R&B trio Chase Atlantic. Other notable acts include idfc singer blackbear, rap star Denzel Curry, pop sensation Peach PRC, and British indie-pop favorite Rachel Chinouriri, who will headline the second stage.

The lineup also features rising stars like Liverpool’s Luvcat and Ivor Novello Award-winner Masterpeace.

Speaking about the announcement, the Abyss hitmaker said: “What we created this year was unimaginable. You start an idea inside your head and you never believe it will come true but then it does all because of the f***ing people and the fundamental idea that we all just wanna be together.

“This wasn’t just a show, we built a f***ing world.”

He continued: “I truly want to thank all who came this year. You make each other shine, you emit such a light - a light that I believe is the answer to all the bulls**t is going on in the world.

“We did it and we’re gonna do it all over again. Bludfest year 2 is upon us, a little bit bigger and a little bit better … get ready!”

Tickets for Bludfest year 2 will be available through several presales: fan presale begins Monday, December 16, at 10 am, followed by a TikTok presale on Tuesday, December 17, at 10 am. General tickets go on sale Wednesday, December 18, at 10 am.

Tickets can be purchased at bludfest.com or aegpresents.co.uk.
