The All Together Now flag was unveiled this morning, spanning from Curraghmore to Poolbeg, to announce the first artists set to perform the festival's sixth chapter, with many more to be announced for what will be the most anticipated ATN to date.
Returning to the stunning Curraghmore Estate over the August Bank Holiday Weekend, 31st July - 3rd August 2025. Following an incredible response to this August festival, Loyalty & Phase 1 tickets sold out in record time, Phase 2 tickets will go on sale at 9am Thursday, 28 November.
Building on the unforgettable energy of 2024’s festival, which saw epic performances and magical moments across music, arts, and community, ATN 2025 promises an even more immersive experience.
With world-class headliners, breakthrough artists, and hidden gems, All Together Now invites the public to three days and four nights of discovery and celebration as they continue to evolve this one-of-a-kind festival.
The first wave of acts is headlined by Grammy-nominated Fontaines D.C., bringing their poetic post-punk energy to the Curraghmore stage. Their latest album, ROMANCE, released in August, ushers in a cinematic and melancholic new era with standout tracks like ‘Starburster’. Renowned for visceral live performances, Fontaines D.C continue to redefine alternative rock with a distinctly Irish edge, making this one of the year’s most exciting homecomings for one of the biggest bands of the moment.
Joining them is the celebrated Michael Kiwanuka, whose soulful music resonates globally. His new album, Small Changes, is out this Friday, with critics buzzing as a masterpiece. Mojo Magazine calls it “hypnotic beats, empathic emotions, and first-rate songwriting,” while the New York Times praises his ability to “make the simple profound.”
This will be his only Irish show next year, making it an unmissable performance.
The lineup also features Mercury Prize nominee CMAT and her critically acclaimed album Crazymad, For Me. Described as “cinematic, theatrical, and continuously melodramatic” by Dork, her nostalgic hit single 'Where Are Your Kids Tonight' featuring John Grant is a fan favourite. Speaking of Grant, the visionary singer-songwriter returns with The Art of the Lie, already hailed as a career-defining masterpiece by Record Collector, which calls it “eloquent and erudite... a rich and dense record.”
Electronic fans can look forward to BICEP’s electrifying CHROMA AV DJ set, plus performances from the irreverent and captivating Wet Leg, the legendary Leftfield, celebrating 35 years of original bass and beats with Leftism and beyond, and London singer-songwriter Nilüfer Yanya. Yanya’s third album, My Method Actor, has earned universal acclaim, with Pitchfork awarding Best New Music and Wonderland calling it “potent, poignant, piercing.”
Stay tuned for further announcements about our diverse stages and a host of immersive experiences, including wellness activities, delectable delights, and creative art installations that make All Together Now unlike any other festival.
