With Optimo, Crazy P, Luke Una, Tigerbalm, Aroop Roy, Grace Sands, Tia Cousins and a packed roster of party starters, this is shaping up to be one for the heads, the hips, and the heart.

Sancho Panza has been setting dancefloors alight since the early warehouse days, soundtracking sweaty, euphoric nights and defining proper underground dance culture. With a two-decade reign as Notting Hill Carnival’s go-to house music powerhouse, they’ve built a legacy of big vibes, even bigger basslines, and dancefloor moments that stick with you forever—and 2025 is no exception.

Still leading from the front, still throwing down with the best, and still serving up unforgettable festival energy, this year’s lineup is stacked, bringing legends, rising stars, and groove maestros together for another unmissable Campo Sancho session.

This year, they’re serving up a feast of selectors, featuring genre-bending Optimo, the ever-iconic Luke Una, disco-funk fusionists Crazy P, and the euphoric energy of Tigerbalm. Expect house, nu-disco, Balearic bangers, and everything in between from selectors like Grace Sands, Aroop Roy, and Tia Cousins, plus a stellar supporting cast, including Lisa Loud, Pete Herbert, Stuart Patterson, Sophie Lloyd, and Serge Santiago b2b David Parr (aka Stompa Phunk Sound System).

And because Campo Sancho isn’t just about the dancefloor, 2025 sees the introduction of “Upwoods”, a brand-new woodland escape curated by Listen Here, Camp Bliss, and Sancho Panza. Expect laid-back grooves, immersive performances, and plenty of cocktail-fueled toe-tapping from the likes of Aidy West, Emma Noble, Ronnie Turner, and Dan The Drum.

Family Friendly, Dancefloor Approved

It’s not just about the grown-ups getting their groove on – Campo Sancho has something for the little ravers too. Expect circus acts, kids’ discos (yes, with Lisa Loud on deck duties!), roaming performers, and a proper arts programme to keep the young ones entertained while the parents cut shapes.

As festival founders and global dance music legends, the Dub Pistols have once again curated a lineup that reflects their passion for music, connection, and pure energy. Barry Ashworth, frontman of the Dub Pistols, sums up the festival’s unique vibe:

“Everyone’s a star at Mucky Weekender. I’m a strong believer that the crowd are just as important as the performers. Everyone has a smile on their face and are full of love. It’s the kind of festival you could go to alone and leave with 1,000 new friends.”

This ethos is at the heart of the festival, ensuring a weekend that’s not just about music but about creating lifelong memories.

The iconic Groove Armada leads the charge, whose timeless hits and electrifying performances have made them global favourites. Joining them is the reggae and sound system master David Rodigan, bringing his trademark energy and passion to the festival.

Festival-goers can also look forward to groundbreaking sets from The Orb, Phil Hartnoll (Orbital DJ), and jungle pioneers Fabio & Grooverider, as well as high-energy performances from Stanton Warriors, Plump DJs, Krafty Kuts, Jaguar Skills and of course our very own Hobbs & Ron Mexico. With over 60 artists across the weekend, the lineup offers something for everyone, spanning house, reggae, jungle, hip-hop, breaks, and everything in between.

More Than a Festival

This year’s Dead Famous theme invites attendees to honor the legends who’ve inspired us all by stepping into their shoes—literally. From iconic musicians and actors to cultural heroes, the fancy dress vibe will add a unique, playful energy to the festival grounds.

Barry Ashworth is especially excited about the festival’s inclusive and friendly atmosphere, saying,

“Expect the most electric of atmospheres—you can arrive alone and leave with 100 new friends.”

This September, Vicarage Farm will come alive with music, laughter, and stories that will last a lifetime. From the Dub Pistols’ personal touch to the incredible lineup and vibrant theme, Mucky Weekender Festival 2025 is set to be an unforgettable event.

Join us, dress to impress, and let’s make history—together.

Taking place on Friday, January 31 – Saturday, February 1, 2025, at its new location sitting right next to one of Costa Rica’s premier surf beaches, Playa Hermosa, Ocaso Festival offers an unforgettable experience that blends expertly-curated house and techno programming with the stunning natural beauty of the Pacific coast.

The festival’s eighth edition will feature performances from Black Book Records label boss Chris Lake and underground trailblazers The Martinez Brothers, who will be making their Central American debuts. Ocaso will also welcome Brazilian selector Vintage Culture for a mesmerizing headlining performance. The lineup will also host techno duo Kasablanca, rising house star Riordan, Afrohouse tastemaker Maz, and Space Miami resident DJ Layla Benitez, alongside a bevy of talented local Costa Rican artists. 

For its 2025 event, Ocaso Festival is relocating to Playa Hermosa, which is 10 miles from the bustling nightlife of Jaco and a short trip away from Costa Rica’s most iconic attractions, including Manuel Antonio and La Fortuna’s waterfalls. This surrounding beach offers the perfect backdrop for a festival that has always emphasized intimacy and connection, providing attendees with natural splendour as they immerse themselves in the music.

Ocaso Festival also boasts a plethora of experiential excursions that offer attendees the chance to explore and connect with Costa Rica’s natural beauty. In the days after the festival, patrons can participate in curated group tours with fellow Ocaso attendees to some of the country’s most idyllic locations, from the Arenal Volcano in La Fortuna and hot springs to the natural wonders of Manuel Antonio and Corcovado National Park. During the festival weekend, attendees can explore Jaco and purchase activity packages such as ATV rides, catamaran cruises, and crocodile tours to ensure an immersive weekend adventure.

Boundary will allocate 1,000 tickets to this campaign and festival-goers can buy up to two each at whatever price they can afford, starting from just £10 per ticket.

Boundary Brighton will donate 25% of each ticket sale from this new initiative to its charity partner, Starr Trust, helping it to continue its vital mission to empower young people in the region.

Over 100 festivals have been forced to cancel this year with many others reducing capacity or cutting back on production. Despite six sold-out events in the past seven years, Boundary observes the financial challenges facing the industry. However, instead of cutting costs, it plans to take a positive approach, using the ‘Pay What You Can Afford’ initiative to give back to its community and help deliver the festival to its usual high standards.

As many young people struggle with the cost-of-living crisis, this initiative ensures that the acknowledged, positive impact of live music events and socialising on mental health is not limited just to those who can afford it.

With a lineup including Wilkinson, Songer, K Motionz, Flowdan, Harriet Jaxxon, Denis Sulta, Joy (Anonymous), Ewan McVicar, Eliza Rose, Friction, Serum, Sota, Badger and many more, Boundary Brighton will be a date on the calendar that ticket holders can look forward to.

Boundary also recognises the support of those who have already bought tickets for this year’s event and loyalty tickets will be made available after the festival. Boundary also asks those who can afford standard tickets to show their support for the festival and the live music industry by purchasing these and not using the ‘Pay What You Can Afford’ option.

Brighton is home to the Boundary team and the festival has a deep connection to the community, supporting various organisations throughout the year. Alongside the Starr Trust, Boundary is also partnering with Brighton Uni Student Union for 2024, as well as Tickets For Good which provides free and heavily discounted tickets to NHS staff, NHS students, and NHS contractors. 

Local electronic music artists and promoters also benefit from support from Boundary Brighton with local venues hosting stages and playing a pivotal role in curating lineups of the most exciting local talent. Boundary actively promotes stage partners’ events, celebrates their achievements, and helps build their communities throughout the year. 

The vital support received to date has helped Boundary move forward this year despite a challenging environment. The launch of the ‘Pay What You Can Afford’ initiative sees the festival give back with thanks. 

Tickets are available from https://bit.ly/BoundaryPWYCA.
