Arctangent Festival 2025 Books New Headliners Wardruna, TesseracT, with Clown Core, Leprous, Mew, Slift, Arab Strap, Green Lung, Pelican, Emma Ruth Rundle, and More


Following on from last year’s incredible and sold out (and probably best so far) 10th Anniversary event, the much loved and mighty award-winning Arctangent Festival returns this summer, and can today reveal another host of amazing acts for the event. To kick things off we have two more headliners for the festival. Firstly playing their first ever ATG are Norwegian band Wardruna, who will be bringing their Norse musical interpretations and traditions to the festival as our Wednesday night headliners. With this incredible band now in place, the Wednesday for this year’s Arctangent Festival will be its biggest ever, with more stages open to accomodate, but still no clashes! Then we have the brilliant UK prog rock band Tesseract, who will be returning to ATG and headlining the main stage on Saturday this year, closing out an intense two year touring period of their album War Of Being. In addition to a host of new bands added to the fest, special sets Include – Between The Buried In Me (Playing 2 Sets), Fall Of Troy (Playing Doppelganger In Full), and We Lost The Sea (Playing 2 Sets)!
