Boneyard Promotions has once again outdone itself by bringing the Burn It Down Festival back to the Torquay seafront, boasting a stellar new line up that’s sure to make waves. This award-winning festival, recently crowned the UK Festival Awards’ Best Metropolitan Festival 2024, is set to make an even bigger splash with acts like Zulu, Blood Command, God Complex, Feed the Rhino, and many more gracing the stages.

Returning as the South West's premier indoor alternative festival, Burn It Down 2025 will transform the Foundry, Attic, and Apple & Parrot stages into a musical haven on Friday, August 29, and Saturday, August 30. Notably, it will feature its first-ever no-barrier main stage, promising an electrifying atmosphere for fans.

The lineup is jam-packed, with an exciting roster of bands scheduled to perform, including: Arizona Law, Big Lava, Bind., Blood Command, Body Web, Break Fifty, Bruise Control, Buds, Coast to Coast (comeback show), CrashFace, Cruelty, Death Tash, Eville, False Reality, Feed the Rhino, Frozemode, God Complex, Graywave, Heaven Unknown, Hell Hotel, Hyphen, Jools, Karen Dio, Knives, Last Wishes, Long Goodbye, Mallavora, Menstrual Cramps, Mouth Culture, Native James, Not Without Punishment, Overpower, Pave, Perp Walk, Plastics, Shooting Daggers, Slung, So Far So Good, Still In Love, Throwaway Scene, TRC, Tropic Gold, Uninvited, and many more to be announced!

After a triumphant 2024 festival featuring headliners Wargasm (UK) and Creeper, Burn It Down is set to deliver even more with two new headline acts and a fresh batch of talent representing the best in Alternative music.

Headliner Zulu joins the festival after being announced for the No Play Festival, with upcoming shows alongside Refused, Show Me The Body, and GZA. Their performance is set to be a showstopper, thanks to the collaborative efforts with BYHXC, the minds behind the South West Suplex all-day festival in Plymouth.

Fans can look forward to triumphant returns, such as False Reality and Not Without Punishment, back by popular demand after their standout 2024 performances, and TRC making their long-awaited return to the Attic stage since 2021.

This year is all about major comebacks and firsts. Feed the Rhino, following their shows with Graphic Nature, make their festival return since 2019, and Pop Punk legends Coast to Coast will reunite for their first show post-breakup. Karen Dio joins the lineup after touring with Limp Bizkit, while Hardcore bands Break Fifty, Perp Walk, and Cruelty promise intense, intimate sets on the Attic stage.

Adding to the festival's charm is the return of the beloved merch hall, featuring food vendors, local artists, dedicated seating, and a spacious area for bands to display and sell their merchandise. Positioned next to Torquay Harbour, the festival's picturesque setting is sure to make for an unforgettable experience, much like previous years.

With presale tickets available from Monday, March 3, and general sale starting Tuesday, March 4, Burn It Down Festival 2025 is shaping up to be an unmissable event.

Mark your calendars and get ready for a festival to remember!
