First Bloodstock 2025 posterThis year’s event may still be in the midst of its maniacal moshing mayhem, but Bloodstock has already followed its annual tradition and announced ALL THREE main stage headliners for next summer’s iteration of the festival built by fans for fans…

Trivium will top the bill on the Friday night, with Machine Head following suit on the Saturday and Gojira closing out proceedings on the Sunday.

All four headline acts for the SOPHIE Stage also have been confirmed, with the Nergal-fronted Me And That Man closing out the opening Thursday night, Canadian death metallers Kataklysm finishing off Friday (sic), nu-metal veterans Static-X shutting down Saturday and the mighty Obituary sounding the death knell on the Sunday night.

Elsewhere on the bill, Lacuna Coil and Orange Goblin have been confirmed for the RJD Stage on the Friday, with Creeper and Kublai Khan TX tearing it up on the Saturday and The Black Dahlia Murder, Feuerschwanz, Lord Of The Lost and August Burns Red all ripping it up on the Sunday.

Bloodstock 2025 takes place over the weekend of 7-10 August. Early bird tickets go on sale at 9am on Monday (12 August), with VIP and campervan tickets following on Wednesday (14 August).
