I think Jimmy Eat World are a strong contender to return.

Neck Deep

Good Charlotte

Jimmy Eat World

Bullet For My Valentine

A Day To Remember

Beartooth

 

Probably all got a chance at headlining one of the two big stages

Apparently they've asked ADTR a couple times if they'd play but every time they have been way out of the festivals budget. They would be the perfect headliner though if it was possible. 

 

Can definitely see Neck Deep headlining one of SD or Trees next year though. 

[DomDom1984]

Neck Deep would make two in a row for headliners I don't want to watch. 

 

Jimmy Eat World is the dream. Hope for AFI to appear in some way. Get Prince Daddy on there!

[Alex Winstone]

Neck Deep doing life's not out to get you for it's 10 year anniversary, wouldn't mind turnstile or rise against 

[kjvffm]

Jimmy Eat World and Architects(or ADTR) for Slammy. Neck Deep to headline Trees.

[Andre91]

I’m going to guess that Neck Deep and Pierce The Veil will be the two biggest bands on the lineup. 
 

Can see Beartooth headlining a stage too. 

[elviiin]

2024 line up announced late October 2023, so hopefully only a couple of months away from 2025 line up.

[Steve G]

Knocked Loose 

Ice Nine Kills 

Pierce The Veil 

Funeral For A Friend (20 years since Hours was released)

Beartooth 

Frank Carter And The Rattlesnakes 

 

Not all of them but Any of them I'd say contention for headlining it.

[Alex Winstone]

Descendents, Neck Deep, Turnstile and Gnarwolves reunion 

[BrutalLegend]

Neck Deep out now they’ve announced a headline UK tour for 2025.

 

Falling In Reverse 

Knocked Loose

Fever 333

Hot Mulligan

While She Sleeps 

Ice Nine Kills

Alien Ant Farm

Hot Milk

Stray From The Path

 

Can see some of these showing up.

There's no London or Leeds date on that tour for a reason

Announcement on 4 September.

Yep. They're the headliner. Which would make the second in a row that I've got zero interest in.

 

Hope we've got similar competition against them as we got this year.

Neck Deep headliner. A Day To Remember at Brixton Academy. Not a great start...

Both these being announced on the 4th? Yeah, not a great start for me either. But always like Slam Dunk to start off festival season.

From what I read here, Neck Deep could be the headliner. But about ADTR, their 2 shows at Brixton end of June ruled them out. But no idea what's the announcement gonna look like next week 🙂 

[BrutalLegend]

I’d say A Day To Remember are slighty to big to play? And will sub Download main stage or headline the 2nd stage imo.

[DomDom1984]

Hoping for an AFI appearance myself.

If this was the lineup for £120 a day ticket they may as well cancel now. Honestly terrible.

I could see Electric Callboy being main sub on the Slam Dunk Stage. Feel about the right size for that now?
