Full Lineup Announced for Celebrated Temple Newsam All Dayer This May

Live at Leeds In The Park have announced further lineup additions for the fourth edition of the popular Leeds all day festival, taking place at Temple Newsam Park on Saturday 24th May 2025. Returning once again to the beautiful grounds of the West Yorkshire estate for arguably the festival’s most ambitious programme to date, the all-dayer promises to deliver an incredible action-packed day of live music, comedy and entertainment.

Leading the announcement are legendary act Manic Street Preachers, who will be appearing following the forthcoming release of their latest album, ‘Critical Thinking’, due in February 2025. With a widely-respected career spanning over 30 years and a critically-acclaimed, sprawling back-catalogue to their name, the band bring with them an army of hits and a reputation for showstopping live performances. Joining them are industrious Scottish indie-rock quartet The Snuts, while Public Service Broadcasting will appear at Temple Newsam Park with their spectacular immersive live show in tow.

Elsewhere across the lineup, Leicester’s Hard Life return to Leeds for the first time since under their new moniker, joining local Leeds indie legends The Pigeon Detectives, beloved English alternative-rock sextet Sports Team, fast-rising Irish folk-pop trio Kingfishr, Gloucestershire indie-pop songwriter Katy J Pearson, and London-based quartet Los Bitchos. They’ll be joined on the music bill by a further array of incredible talent in the form of Fickle Friends, Do Nothing, Corella, Deadletter, Gurriers, Brògeal, Aziya, L’Objectif and Esme Emerson.

They join the previous announcement’s festival headliners Bloc Party (performing ‘Silent Alarm’ and greatest hits), in addition to a curated selection of new and established acts that includes Yard Act, Sigrid, Jamie Webster, Natasha Bedingfield, The Amazons and more.

Broadening the festival’s offer beyond live music, Dave Masterman (AKA “Producer Dave” of Elis James and John Robins’ BBC 5 Live show) will bring his acclaimed sold out club night ‘All My Friends’ to the park, promising wall-to-wall indie bangers and special guest DJ sets. He joins a previously announced stellar lineup of comedy and entertainment including Maisie Adam, Angelos Epithemiou and Frankie Monroe, while EastEnders’ Shaun Williamson’s karaoke party ‘Barrioke’ will pop up inside on-site pub The Two Legs alongside musical bingo, pub quizzes and more.

Held on the grounds of the historic Temple Newsam estate at the beginning of festival season, the multi-stage event promises to deliver a welcoming family-friendly atmosphere while perfectly striking the balance between variety and value, appealing to a wide range of festival-goers by offering a full green fields festival experience in just one day. 

Live at Leeds In the Park will take place at Temple Newsam on Saturday, 24th May 2025.

Reduced entry U14 tickets available and free entry to U5’s.

“We’re very excited to announce some fantastic names for Live at Leeds in the Park. Manic Street Preachers will be a big moment and we’re really proud to have them on the bill. It’s great to have Hard Life back who played our first “in the Park”, there’s a big hometown set from Pigeon Detectives and some alternative favourites in Sports Team, Los Bitchos and Katy J Pearson. It feels like there’s something for everyone on the bill and we hope to see them all in the Park!”
