Bloc party were superb on castle last time and played album backwards and did do hits as well . Would love them to be back but think maybe 2026. 

Won't be 2026, already second year of touring that album next year.

Already done album tour at vici, just meant them playing

If it follows the format of their (amazing) Crystal Palace gig earlier this year, a Bloc Party gig would be more of a greatest hits set that happens to include most of Silent Alarm spread throughout it, so might be considered different enough. Fingers crossed!

OMG one of my favourite bands the Maccabees are making a reunion announcement on Monday! Perfect Castle Stage headliners in my humble opinion! 🤞

 

The APE announcement has probably finished that hope. Victorious and APE do sometimes share acts but not headliners. As an example Pixies headlined Castle last year and also played further down the bill at APE.

 

With Maccabees playing APE bank holiday weekend Victorious still looking like the better choice for the weekend.

The APE gig is being sold as their first appearance since splitting so that rules out Victorious

I once saw The Maccabees play in someone's front room.... there was also a tent erected in it as well. 👍

I know they’re more likely to do arenas but would love a Scissor Sisters headline slot.

That would be very cool
