After announcing arguably their biggest year yet in Sheffield, ROCK N ROLL CIRCUS will return to Don Valley Bowl for its third year. Today, organisers have announced the final line-up for the 2025 edition, and it is one for the indie fans.

The first announcement for this year came just four weeks after the 2024 edition, with an action packed day of local names set to feature throughout the day, headlined by Reverend & The Makers as part of their 20 year celebration. Recent news saw the iconic Queens of the Stone Age reveal their first performance in Sheffield since 2000, with two dates to kick start the event. Manchester legends James will be closing out the event on the Sunday, with a star studded line-up consisting of Britpop favourites, Ocean Colour Scene, Cast, Embrace and much more.

The Friday line-up has now been revealed, and it is Liverpool trio THE WOMBATS who will top the bill of what is set to be another stellar day in the steel city.

Securing the #4 spot with their brand new album ‘Oh! The Ocean’, this year see’s THE WOMBATS take on a bunch of outdoor shows across the summer, with this one to be part of a spectacular event.

In a press release, festival director Ali O’Reilly said “With The Wombats headlining Friday, we’ve now completed our most exciting Rock N Roll Circus line-up yet. This festival is about more than just the music – it’s an entire experience, combining world-class performances with incredible food, immersive circus entertainment, and a truly unique atmosphere. We can’t wait for fans to join us this summer!”

Fellow Liverpudlians JAMIE WEBSTER and CIRCA WAVES join the line-up, ready to bring a host of festival anthems to Sheffield once again.

Local lads THE ROSADOCS, THE CROOKS and FREDDIE HALKON will also be performing on the day, with DECO, SOMEBODY’S CHILD and CRYSTAL TIDES ready to bring their festival experience across to the steel city.

BETHANY GRACE, NELL MESCAL, FEMUR, SUNDRESS, ALICE EDE and CHARLIE FLOYD complete the Friday line-up for Rock N Roll Circus 2025.
