Rock Werchter 2025

[Archi]

Too early? Too late. I start this topic after Billie Eilish - already - announced her huge worldwide tour for 2025 including a Summer Tour from April 23th to July 27th in Europe. She hasn't announced any shows in Belgium and has a gap between July 15th and July 7th. She would be a perfect headliner at RW on July 4th or 5th. And I image her headlining Glastonbury the weekend before.

Depends on the viewpoint

I'd love to finally see her live but can't imagine her headlining RW. Her fanbase is still a bit too specific, not the same aura as an headliner like Dua Lia or Billie Eilish. But she could be a strong co-headline or sub. I imagine her more headlining Pukkelpop.

Do RW do earlybirds?

Nop.

Paul McCartney announce his very short European Tour for December with only shows in Paris, Madrid, Manchester and London. Before some festivals next Summer? He could be at RW (or TW Classic). 

Just an idea...

Thursday: Paul McCartney - London Grammar - Rag'n'Bone Man.
Friday: Imagine Dragons - Post Malone - Goldband.
Saturday: Billie Eilish - Twenty One Pilots - Thirty Seconds To Mars.
Sunday: Pearl Jam - Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds - Dean Lewis.

Dua Lipa sold out 2x Sportpaleis in 2022 and is now considered one of the bigger headliners this year. Olivia Rodrigo sold out her 2 Sportpaleis shows this year even quicker than Dua did. She's definitely ready for it.

I actually think we might get both Billie Eilish and Rodrigo next year.

I can’t see Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds playing second last anymore. If he’s playing RW, he’ll close down the main stage. And definitely not play before a big act like Pearl Jam.

I think Macca will do the 50th.

Never too soon for some festival speculation and hype 😄

[ParanoidTourist]

Paul McCartney would definitely make me return next year! Would probably be the last chance to see one of the Beatles live.

Do we have the Date for 2025 already?

Not yet, but's usually two weeks after Graspop, which would make it 3-6 July. I believe they only once or twice have they deviated from this, due to accomodating plans for a specific headliner.

Rock Werchter 50 from 3rd to 6th July, announced after Foo Fighters tonight.
