Forest Live has announced Snow Patrol will be headlining the forest-set British festival next summer. Taking place in mid-June next year, Forest Live Festival has begun revealing the main acts of their upcoming edition and fans are not disappointed. Tickets for the 2025 edition of the much-awaited festival will go on general sale at 10:00 GMT on Friday, November 15.
Forest Live takes place every summer in the forests of England and is partially organized and supported by Forestry England. This year, four forests are set to become stages of the festival: Cannock Chase Forest, Delamere Forest, High Lodge Thetford Forest and Westonbirt Arboretum. Forestry England uses the proceeds from the ticket sales to fund their projects, the welfare of forests and the planting of trees. After the 2023 edition, Forest Live revealed that in the festival’s 23 years, more than two million people have attended the festival, and this enabled the Forestry England to plant more 7.4 million trees.
This year, once again, the public is invited to attend and enjoy music while supporting the planet and ensuring the welfare of our British forests. So far the headliners announced are the following: Snow Patrol, Sting, The Script, Elbow, Blossoms, James and Rag’n’Bone Man.
These acts will perform in the different sites where the festival takes place; for example, Snow Patrol will be playing Delamere Forest and Westonbirt Arboretorum, whilst The Script is set for High Lodge and Westonbirt Arboretorum. Sting will play Westonbirt Arboretorum and Cannock Chase Forest.
Tickets are available starting on the Forest Live website and each concert has a different price, depending on the artist performing as well as the venue. VIP tickets are also available and they include a great view of the stage, luxury facilities and exclusive bars and foods.
Forest Live was first held in 2001, as a way to raise money to protect forests; some of its first headliners included the likes of Ed Sheeran and Motorhead. Over the years, the organizers have chosen sites with bigger capacities and the festival has grown bigger and bigger. Last year, names such as Sophie Ellis-Bextor, Nile Rodgers and CHIC and Van Morrison performed.
Tickets for Forest Live will be available to purchase for general sale here on November 15, but you can also register here for pre-sale before the 14 of November
