Chapple12345 Posted August 1 Report Share Posted August 1 So... what are we thinking Based off absolutely nothing I'm going to guess Friday - Biffy Clyro Saturday - Lorde Sunday - Pet Shop Boys Other acts I hope that could pop up are Idles, Sports Team and Sigrid I looked at last year's survey and 15 acts from it appeared this year so when that comes out we might get a couple of ideas of who's playing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Charli xcx is so hot right now I think she is probably Reading/ Leeds headliner size for next year. Lots of talk about sam fender potentially being glasto headliner, dependent on new album. Nick cave likely to be doing festivals next year so defo potential, although he's done APE over latitude recently. Love for him to be back though.

Yeah I agree actually, would replace Fontaines DC with Sam Fender although they are headlining Finsbury Park in July ‘25. And I can see someone like Haim or PJ Harvey potentially replacing Charli xcx on the Friday I’ve predicted. I’m hoping latitude don’t go too far down the ‘retro’ rabbit hole they seem to have dug ie Duran Duran,Rick Astley and Nile Rodgers etc. With Cyndi Lauper doing a farewell tour next year it just screams latitude at this present time, which wouldn’t be horrendous but I’d rather something more interesting. Bloc party are bringing out a new album next year and have headlined latitude before so well worth a shout. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No way will you see Charli XCX or Sam Fender headlining... or anyone popular with 20-somethings. Wrong crowd. Nick Cave and Suede possibilities, for sure. And would be great.

I totally agree that charli xcx and sam fender are too big now... but they were good suggestions I think they have both kind of blown up. Charli xcx was playing the norwich uea on the crash tour so I reckon she was the right sort of act to play until she exploded with brat this year. Sam Fender even more so had latitude headliner written all over him if he had needed a festival to bridge the gap between 3rd on the pyramid, latitude headliner to major headliner but he's leapfrogged that step. It's true that the eventual headliners will be far less exciting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chapple12345 Posted August 16 Author Report Share Posted August 16 (edited) I have no clue if Charlis out of the question, I guess when lineups start being revealed we'll get a rough idea. Saying that, Bratitude is such low hanging fruit for promoters I could sort of see it happening. She really has skyrocketed the last few months though so who knows I've been massively overestimating the lineup but had a rough idea of some names that could possibly show up: Obelisk Friday Biffy ClyroBlossomsJohnny Marr Saturday LordeThe Last Dinner PartySelf EsteemSunday Pet Shop Boys Madness Jessie WareBeabadoobee Tent FridayArlo Parks Amyl and the Sniffers Picture Parlour Saturday Suede English Teacher Fat Dog Sunday Leftfield Soft PlaySports Team Edited August 16 by Chapple12345 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not (just) that they're too big - they attract the wrong demographic. Latitude has changed. Future headliners won't be aimed at 16 to 30-year-olds. I'm sure of it. Pretty sure Melvin wants a crowd of predominantly 40yo+ festival-goers (because they have the money), with their accompanied kids. The late teens have Leeds/Reading, Wireless... and Boardmasters. Unlucky! Edited August 17 by Furq 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've missed Lorde and PSB whenever I've had the chance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
