Turnstile have been announced as headliners for the first ever London edition of Outbreak Festival.

The festival is adding a one-off date in the capital as part of the inaugural LIDO Festival on June 13 and Turnstile will head up a stacked bill as a UK exclusive date.

Also on the bill for next year’s festival are Alex G, Danny Brown, Drug Church and Knocked Loose.

The festival will then head to its original home of Manchester a day later, where the likes of Denzel Curry, Sunny Day Real Estate, Militarie Gun will all play alongside Alex G and Knocked Loose.

2024’s Outbreak Festival saw Basement headline, as well as performances from JPEGMAFIA, Show Me The Body, Flatbush Zombies and Mannequin Pussy.

LIDO Festival will also take in a headline set from Charli XCX, curating a day dubbed ‘party girl’. The new festival, from the organisers of All Points East, will also take in a headline show from Jamie xx on June 7.

Charli’s show will see her welcome collaborators and friends including The Japanese HouseA. G. Cook and The Dare for a huge headline show.

LIDO Festival, named after the park’s historic Lido Field, is set to take place across two weekends in June 2025, and promises “carefully curated music line-ups alongside community-driven activities during the week, all with a strong emphasis on sustainability.”
