Truck Festival 2025

[NorthernSoul52]

Well, think that's mostly that wrapped. Be curious to see the smaller names that fill out the undercard in the end.

Headliners: Nothing But Thieves, Courteeners, Kasabian

 

Thursday: Bloc Party

 

Subs: Blossoms, The Last Dinner Party, Franz Ferdinand

 

Other: Wunderhorse, CMAT

 

 

If Bloc Party were instead of NBT so not requiring an extra Thursdah ticket that could be a goer with a Courteeners alternative. It's not the only option that Bloc Party and TLDP are going to fon though.

I'd have been happier with Courteeners as the paid-for Thursday extra so I could just go for an NBT-Bloc-Kasabian trio tbh. But hey, it is what it is.

I mean, Nothing but Thieves did 2 nights at Wembley Arena last year and drew a healthy crowd to their set at Glasto a few months back. So I'd say they're in the ballpark for a smaller end festival like this one.

 

If it's true they've been roped in to be a UK exclusive, that's quite interesting going too.

 

When I went to Truck in 2019, they were subbing Wolf Alice and drew a very decent crowd for it, many of whom knew and moshed along. Even if I left 2/3rds of the way through to see Public Service Broadcasting.

My opinion on this lineup:

 

Bloc party: Very strong Thursday can’t wait to see them.

 

NBT: I love their music but wasn’t sure they would be big enough to headline, 

I may be wrong though.

 

Courteeners: Saw them at victorious were amazing can’t wait to see them again

 

Kasabian: Very strong headliner, favourite part of the lineup

 

Blossoms, Last dinner party: Very good subs considering blossoms headlined Thursday 3 years ago

 

Franz Ferdinand: Why are they this low down???? It’s good but I’m confused

 

 

[Dales]

I've seen all 9 acts named before and some of them like NTB, Blossoms & Kasabian 10+ times, so very happy with the line up.

 

I find Bloc Party an odd Thursday headliner, not because they are not worthy of the top line but more that Thursday audience does seem to attract the youngest crowd with many older people doing the 3 day option.

 

Do young people like Bloc Party or even know who they are? I know thats a generalisation, I just thought they could have picked better options for the Thursday either a newer band or if an old act, one with a few rowdy bangers.

 

Not that I really care as I am old and doing all 4 days and know I will enjoy Bloc Party. Prety sure there are lots of kids with good taste who will appreciate Bloc Party but also feel they will do very little for any youngsters who just want to drink and have a good sing along to huge tunes while having a bit of a mosh.

I think Kasabian ars just a standard sized booking for this festival.

Bloc Part on the Thursday would almost put me off it as I don't want to spend 4 days on it.
