Open’er Festival has announced its latest additions to their 2025 line-up, which includes RAYE, Justice, St Vincent, and FKA Twigs, amongst others – all joining the previously-announced headliner Linkin Park.
The festival, held annually in Gdynia, Poland at the Gdynia-Kosakowo Airport, revealed the names yesterday (November 18), with more acts to be announced soon – alongside the aforementioned names is Australian EDM group Rüfüs Du Sol.
Open’er Festival will be part of Linkin Park’s newly-announced massive world tour for 2025, hitting stadiums and arenas across North America, Europe, Asia and Latin America – including London’s Wembley Stadium on June 28.
Tickets for Open’er Festival are currently on sale until June 2025 – the four-day event will take place from July 2-5, 2025. Festival passes start from 519 PLN (£100) for one-day entry to 1089 PLN (£210) for a weekender pass. Buy your tickets here.
Open’er Festival 2024 featured headliners Doja Cat, Dua Lipa and Foo Fighters.
Linkin Park announced their comeback in September with a livestream event, where they revealed the addition of Emily Armstrong (formerly of Dead Sara) as their new co-vocalist. Drummer Colin Brittain joined the band too, following the departure of founding member Rob Bourdon.
Founding guitarist Brad Delson is also absent from the group’s comeback tour, but is still working with them behind the scenes – including participating in the creation of new music. His absence on the road was later explained by Shinoda: “He doesn’t love the touring and the live show lifestyle, and so he is our guitarist, but he’s not playing live.”
RAYE will also be headlining All Points East 2025 in August – the announcement came following the release of last year’s debut album ‘My 21st Century Blues’, which has seen her nominated for the 2023 Mercury Prize, take home a record number of awards at the 2024 BRIT Awards, nominated for two trophies at the 2025 Grammys, and win Best UK & Ireland Act at this year’s MTV EMAs.
FKA Twigs will tour in 2025 in support of her upcoming album ‘Eusexua’, which is set for release on January 24. Last week, she revealed the latest single from ‘Eusexua’: the avant-garde ‘Drums Of Death’, which features production work by Koreless.

The 2025 Coachella lineup has been announced unusually early, and again — as always — the bill is heavy on electronic artists. Of the roughly 150 artists on the bill, a third are dance/electronic acts.
Some of the biggest electronic artists who’ll be playing the prestige festival next spring include U.K. legends The Prodigy, progressive trance icons Above & Beyond, EDM architect Zedd, German trio Keinemusic, Brazilian star Alok, psych-electronic trio Darkside, hard techno upstart Sara Landry, Dutch wunderkind Mau P and genre pioneers Kraftwerk.
The festival has several stages exclusively dedicated to dance: the club-style Yuma Tent and the Quasar Stage, which was newly added to the festival in 2024 and focused on extended sets. Beyond these spaces, the lineup at the Sahara Tent is typically almost entirely electronic, with electronic acts also placed throughout the rest of the festival’s stages and tents.
Coachella returns to Indio, Calif., over two weekends, on April 13-15 and 20-22; 2025 headliners are Green Day, Lady Gaga and Post Malone, with a special set from Travis Scott.
These are all the electronic artists playing Coachella 2025.
