Kew the Music returns to London’s favorite botanic garden for a week of outdoor concerts next summer. Now in its eighth year, the festival attracts some of the UK’s favorite musicians – and the first acts for 2025 have just been announced.
UB40 with Ali Campbell will take to the intimate Kew Gardens stage on Thursday 10 July. Best known for hits such as Red Red Wine and Can’t Help Falling in Love, the 80s group’s singer will perform for 8,000 music lovers alongside special guest Pato Banton.
Grime legend DJ Spoony then presents his Garage Classical orchestral spectacle on Friday 11 July, having sold out the Royal Albert Hall twice. The classic electronic mix will captivate the audience with a little help from Daniel Bedingfield, So Solid Crew, Heartless Crew and many more.
Nicolas Reyes, the voice behind Gipsy Kings, then closes the much-loved event on Sunday, July 13. A celebration of Catalan rumba, flamenco and salsa, the gig will bring some Latin flair to South West London for one night and night only.
Tickets for Kew the Music 2025 go on general sale at 10am on Friday (October 18) but pre-sales start tomorrow morning (October 17) for newsletter subscribers. There will also be a range of VIP options, including picnic and BBQ packages, available.
You can buy tickets from the Kew the Music website or see See Tickets when they go on sale. It is not yet known how much they will be last year but this information will be available on the website from Friday.
Guests are welcome to bring their own food and drink and can boogie to the amazing line-up while enjoying a picnic. There will also be a range of outdoor bars and street food stalls.
