We can’t wait for the festival season to kick off in Bristol, and the city always starts with a band with the return of the legendary Love Saves The Day every year. Returning to Ashton Court on May 24 & 25, the dance-heavy festival is set for another unmissable bank holiday weekend in 2025.
Bringing some of the most exciting DJs & live performers from across the country, we’ve known for a little while that the breakout queen of jungle Nia Archives, and genre-blurring electronic duo Overmono will headline, alongside a host of D&B, dance and electronic royalty to keep festival goers moving all weekend long. Now, the second wave of artists for Love Saves The Day 2025 has been revealed.
This includes Mercury Prize-winning artist Ms Dynamite, who is known for her ground-breaking work at the intersection of UK garage, R&B, and hip hop. She’s joined by celebrated Scottish DJ Denis Sulta, whose distinctive sound and high-energy sets have made him a standout on international stages. Drum and bass heavyweight Netsky returns to Bristol alongside local favourite Notion, bringing a strong dose of bass-driven energy to the weekend.
Previously announced crowd favourites, Skream & Benga will also reunite for a rare and unparalleled performance at Love Saves the Day. Hybrid Minds will return to Bristol with their signature blend of soulful melodies, liquid rhythms and euphoric sounds. Only adding to an already stellar line-up, D&B legend and festival favourite Shy FX is back with his extensive back catalogue of iconic tracks.
That’s not all, as UK rapper and songwriter Giggs will return to Love Saves the Day for the first time since 2016 with his unmistakable flow. Plus, festival-goers can expect rapper Ghetts, alongside female-only DJ collective Girls Don’t Sync, man of the moment Pawsa, Boiler Room regular Jyoty and Bristol-based A Little Sound with more names yet to be announced.
Tom Paine, Festival Director at Love Saves the Day, said: “This year’s lineup reflects how much the UK scene continues to evolve – from legendary names to incredible newcomers, we’ve created something that truly represents the spirit of Bristol and where music is headed next. It’s going to be a Love Saves to remember up at Ashton Court – so make sure you’re there and come and join us for a proper party.”
