Speaking about the new announcement, festival organiser James Scarlett says, “to have WARDRUNA, a Main Stage headliner, closing off the Wednesday night of ArcTanGent 2025 truly cements this as our biggest year yet. If you can make it to ATG a day early, a four-Day ticket is now a no brainer. Not to mention TESSERACT headlining Saturday night alongside the new additions of CLOWN CORE, MEW, ARAB STRAP, ENVY, GREEN LUNG and tonnes more across the whole weekend. You’re not going to want to miss a second of this weekend – FOMO is an understatement.”
Speaking about performing at this year’s festival, TESSERACT guitarist James Monteith says, “we’re beyond excited to headline the Saturday at ArcTanGent 2025! The lineup once again boasts some of the most innovative and forward-thinking alternative bands around, and we’re truly honoured to close out the festival. This show will also mark the conclusion of our two-year tour in support of War Of Being, so we’re planning a very special performance to celebrate this milestone.”
LEPROUS vocalist and keyboardist, Einar Solberg adds, “always such a pleasure playing at ArcTanGent! Definitely one of the coolest festivals in the UK. Can’t wait to be back, and see you all there later this year!”
And GREEN LUNG frontman Tom Templar says, “we can’t wait to grace the hallowed ground of Fernhill Farm for the first time – ArcTanGent is without doubt one of the most forward-thinking and diverse heavy festivals going, and we’re excited to bring some old school British heavy metal thunder to what is already a stellar lineup. If the scheduling team are reading this, please don’t let us clash with MELVINS.”
ArcTanGent will take place at Fernhill Farm on August 13th-16th 2025. Tickets are available now and can be purchased here.
