Following the gutting postponement of this year’s edition – due to “extended building works” at the venue – Takedown Festival will be back in 2025!

The Portsmouth Guildhall bash is going to return on April 4 – 5, with headliners Elvana and Kris Barras Band, plus the likes of Dream State, Kid Bookie, Acres, Lake Malice, InVisions, Urne, The Nightmares, Ferocious Dog and Blanket (and more).

“We are unbelievably happy to be able to share the line-up for Takedown Festival 2025,” enthuse Kai and Sarah Harris of Takedown Festival Ltd.

“This year has been particularly economically turbulent for everyone and to date this year 60 UK festivals have been cancelled, postponed or lost and we feel incredibly fortunate to be able to return with a line-up we are very proud of. We would like to thank our community for the support we have received this year and we hope to see you in the pit!”

“Very excited to be finally playing Takedown Festival,” adds Jessie Powell of Dream State. “The line-up looks stacked and we are ready to shred the room to pieces. See you in the pit!”
