Houghton Festival has announced its first selection of artists for its forthcoming ninth year, including Ben UFO, Helena Hauff and Sherelle – as well as the festival’s biggest number of debuts ever announced.

Houghton Festival

Taking place between 7th and 10th August, the Craig Richards-devised festival has been a prominent fixture in the festival calendar for electronic music fans for nearly a decade now.

And it looks like Houghton 2025 will be no different with an array of familiar top-tier DJs, including Joy Orbison, Palms Trax, Batu and more.

Plus, taking to the 1,000-acre festival site in Norfolk will be a number of DJs and producers making their debut at the non-stop music affair, including Channel One, Marcel Dettman and Objekt.

Among other names set to play include pioneering DJ Jane Fitz, techno behemoth Richie Hawtin and musician and comedian Reggie Watts.

Tickets will go on sale from 10am this Friday, 7th February, before the second wave line-up is announced in March.
