The End of The Road Festival returns to Larmer Tree Gardens with 2025 lineup including Caribou, Father John Misty, Self Esteem and Sharon Van Etten & The Attachment Theory
An eclectic array of musicians and DJs will be joined by award-winning comedians and thought-provoking authors for the End of The Road Festival.
Headlining the Woods main stage will be Caribou, Father John Misty, Self Esteem and Sharon Van Etten & The Attachment Theory.
Founded in 2006, the End Of The Road will mark its 19th festival in the grounds of Larmer Tree Gardens on the Dorset-Wiltshire border, this year welcoming over 13,500 attendees across the weekend. The festival boasts five stages, and will feature more than 100 live music sets covering a full spectrum of musical genres throughout the four days.
Opening the festival with Thursday’s headline set will be the iconic Sharon Van Etten & The Attachment Theory playing a blend of emotionally charged soaring indie rock. Friday will get the party fully underway with electronic trailblazer Caribou following a mind-expanding set from psych-rockers Goat.
Saturday welcomes pop provocateur Self Esteem, whose high-concept live shows have cemented her as one of the UK’s must-see acts, and on Sunday closing the festival's main stage, Father John Misty returns to the festival with his trademark satirical folk-rock.
Known for its magical setting nestled among the trees, the Garden stage will feature The National’s Matt Berninger followed by Irish folk experimentalist Lisa O’Neill on Friday evening. Headlining on Saturday will be the ferocious Viagra Boys, followed by the genre-defying collective Black Country, New Road on Sunday evening.
Home to the wild, weird and wonderful, Big Top stage highlights include electronic innovator Joy Orbison, noise-rock romantics DIIV, synth philosopher John Maus, glitchy electronic artist Ela Minus, cello-wielding experimentalist Mabe Fratti, and boundary-smashing South African artist Moonchild Sanelly.
Meanwhile, The Folly stage will showcase a top array of up-and-coming artists, while the Boat Stage will be the setting for the delightfully unpredictable. A Talking Heads stage will be home of comedy and author talks and shows.
End of the Road Festival is at Larmer Tree Gardens from 28th to 31st August. Adult weekend tickets are priced from £275 and children’s and teen tickets start from £55. For more information, visit endoftheroadfestival.com
