LINCOLNSHIRE'S HIDDEN GEM LOST VILLAGE FESTIVAL ANNOUNCE THEIR LINEUP FOR 2025

Feb 2

Lincolnshire’s hidden gem to the music scene, Lost Village Festival, announced their lineup for 2025’s edition via social media on Tuesday.

The festival, which is based in the village of Norton Disney takes place every year on August bank holiday weekend, to nicely see off the summer festival season. This year’s dates are August 22st-25th and shall see a span of incredible artists play masterclass sets across the weekend such as Dixon, Joy Orbison, Honey Dijon, Palms Trax, Sherelle, Haai, Lost Village regular and favourite Chloe Caillet, a special back-to-back set from CC Disco and Eroll Alkan, and live sets from Mild Minds, Tourist and Caribou, to name a small handful.

There will also be a small number of artists whose style of music is a first for Lost Village compared to the usual bookings, including Dutch house duo ANOTR, German-based trance artists Narciss and fka.m4a who are both Intercell regulars.

What makes Lost Village so unique from any other festival is the atmosphere. Once there, it feels like time has stopped, and it genuinely feels like you are in a completely otherworldly paradox, creating the perfect escape from regular life. Lost Village’s famous phrase is “those on the outside will never understand”, and it couldn’t be more true, you really have to be there to experience the pure magic of this festival to get it. The festival mainly takes place in the woods, with multiple stages hidden away in the trees, including The Airbase, The Junkyard, The Boatyard, Jupiter Park, The Forgotten Cabin, Watcher’s Holt and The Outpost as well as The Old Zoo and the Burial Ground for the stages in the open air. The stages and their accessories of disused cars, boats and aeroplanes are there to create the vibe of an abandoned site, lost in time, hence the name Lost Village.

In addition to the incredible lineup of musical artists, Lost Village also boasts extra features and activities including The Institute of Curious Minds, where guest speakers host talks on specialist subjects. Previous speakers include Elijah, Irvine Welsh, fashion designer Pam Hogg and The Prodigy’s Leroy. There is also the Lost Theatre of Comedy, where you can watch stand-up performances from comedians - previous guests include Simon Amstell, Katherine Ryan and Russell Kane. If you’re a creative, hands-on person, there are craft activities to participate in including woodturning, candle painting, flower crown making, jewellery making and more. For the foodies, you can book onto forest banquets or Table in the Woods, where you can have a multiple-course meal cooked in the forest by a Michelin-star chef. The food vendors at the festival aren’t your usual greasy burger vans, they hire in street food vendors of all kinds, serving breakfast, lunch and dinner meals from reputable brands including Burger &

Beyond, Club Mexicana and Popham’s. If you love a spa day, or you’re into wellness, there is the Energy Garden situated next to a lake, which offers wood-fired hot tubs and saunas, yoga classes, sound baths, massages and breathwork workshops - there really is something for everyone.

There is a reason this festival sells out every year, come see for yourself.

LATEST FEATURES

DIGITAL COVER 003: LEGZDINA

On a crisp morning in Shoreditch, Legzdina brought the bold energy that defines her music and style. She discussed her debut EP, Celestial Girl and Her Milky Way, a fearless mix of drum’n’bass, sung-rap, and poetic storytelling. The project captures her journey as an artist forging her own path. In conversation, she reflected on the personal stories shaping her music, her community-focused open-mic series Say It Back, and her drive to inspire through art. With ethereal vocals and experimental production, she’s pushing boundaries while eyeing her next milestone - representing Latvia at Eurovision -all while staying true to her belief in individuality and connection.

DIGITAL COVER 002: FLIPTRIX

This album tells a story, and hearing the tales that led to its formation from Fliptrix himself was an honour. We caught up with the charismatic artist shortly before the release of ‘Dragonfly’, to discuss his father, the current state of UK Rap, psychedelics, social media & more.

DIGITAL COVER 001: CLOUD X

In the midst of their planning of this year’s festival, we sat down with Ben Cross and David Dabieh of Cloud X to discuss the business of live music events, the UK government, South London and their future plans, perhaps surmised when Dabieh explained; "One thing about Cloud X is that we didn't have this big plan, we just kept trying to be free".
