Radio 1’s Big Weekend 2025 Sunday line-up has been announced, with Mumford & Sons, Tate McRae, JADE, Jorja Smith, and more set to take the stage and bring the event to an epic close on Sunday, 25 May. Multi-Grammy Award winners, Mumford & Sons, will headline the Main Stage, and BRIT winner JADE will headline the New Music Stage, with Lola Young and Wet Leg also playing the festival.

Mumford & Sons say: “Liverpool, we really cannot wait to see you all at Radio 1’s Big Weekend in May. We’re counting this one as the start of the Summer, and that can’t come quickly enough. Big thanks to Radio 1 for having us. See you soon, Sefton Park x”

They join a host of incredible artists already announced including Sam Fender, Tom Grennan, Nia Archives, Blossoms, Confidence Man, Aitch, AJ Tracey, Wolf Alice, Biffy Clyro, Myles Smith plus many more.

The line-up for Sunday 25 May (in alphabetical order):

Radio 1 Main Stage

  • Jorja Smith
  • Lola Young
  • Mumford & Sons
  • Tate McRae
  • Wet Leg

Radio 1 New Music Stage

  • FLO
  • JADE
  • Joy Crookes
  • Self Esteem
  • South Arcade

With more big names to be announced in the coming weeks.

The line-up for the other stages can be found on the Radio 1 Big Weekend website.

Tickets for Radio 1’s Big Weekend will be available from 5pm tomorrow (Thursday 13 March) and will cost £33 (plus a £4.50 booking fee per ticket). Keep listening to BBC Radio 1 and download the BBC Sounds app for more information.

As with previous Big Weekends, tickets will be geographically weighted with an element of preference given to local residents: 50 percent of tickets will be reserved for those living in Liverpool; 40 percent of tickets will be reserved for those living in the surrounding areas; whilst the remaining 10 percent of tickets will be available for the rest of the UK. The booking process will be handled by Ticketmaster – the only official ticketing agent for Radio 1’s Big Weekend.

Radio 1’s Big Weekend kicks off the UK’s festival season by bringing some of the biggest UK and international artists to cities that may not otherwise host such a large scale event, shining a light on the local area and providing a major boost to the local economy. There is always a huge demand for tickets, with the festival selling out within minutes every year. This year, the BBC is working closely with Liverpool City Council to ensure that Radio 1’s Big Weekend 2025 is a safe and secure environment for all those attending the festival.

BBC Radio 1 will broadcast live from the festival site across the weekend, with performances and tracks available live and on demand across Radio 1’s iPlayer channel and BBC Sounds.
