After the announcement of CMAT headlining a LIDO Festival day, Victoria Park is set to be busy this Summer with the addition of a Bombay Bicycle Club headline and a drool-worthy line-up to boot.

Early in the day, the band will be playing a live performance of their 2010 follow-up, Flaws, before returning to the stage to perform their debut album, I Had The Blues But I Shook Them Loose, as the headline act. With two sets from an iconic band on the cards, this day will be one not to be missed.

Playing their first show in three years, Metronomy top the bill amongst the guests, with their first show back set to be their only one in 2026. Combining catchy indie with blistering electronica, the band are known for getting people on their feet, and this June, it’ll be no different.

Joining the incredible line-up is South African folk musician Alice Phoebe Lou, whose intricate and intimate music creates an alluring atmosphere that everyone must experience once. Complementing Alice with ease, Billie Marten will be taking to the stage, whose gentle sounds have developed from her first release, Writing of Blues and Yellows, at the age of seventeen, into her retrospective 2025 album, Drop Cherries.

Finishing the phenomenal line-up is Lucy Rose, who carved a career for herself and became a powerful voice in the industry, ditching the drums for the piano and songwriting, before arming herself with a guitar and starting the journey to today. The Warwickshire musician has also lent her voice to Bombay Bicycle Club’s second album, Flaws, and previously toured with the band.

Bombay Bicycle Club will headline LIDO Festival on June 14th, joining CMAT’s headline on June 12th, and Maribou State’s day on June 13th. Buy tickets for all days here.
