Rail Ale 2025

Celebrating 25 years of the iconic and unique Rail Ale Festival - it's time to get your tickets for the most atmospheric music and beer festival in the country.

The 2025 Festival will take place over four days from Thursday 15th May to Sunday 18th May with some great live music lined up. As well as the music, there will be a huge selection of over 400 beers and ciders, the renowned Rail Ale Gin Palace, the Wine & Prosecco Bar and of course the Rail Ale trains.

Kicking off the music at Thursday's Rail Ale Rock Night will be Queen tribute band Flash, back on the Roundhouse stage following their hugely successful debut at Rail Ale 2023. Headlining Rail Ale on Friday night will be Jungle Lion, a 10-piece Sheffield-based SKA and reggae band. On Saturday the Rail Ale Festival will go into Swedish super group mode with Lets ABBA Party.

We have a special addition to the 2025 Festival calendar on the afternoon of Sunday 18th May. This is a must do event for country music fans as well as being a day out for all the family - under 18s go free! Nashville @ The Roundhouse will be a celebration of everything Country with leading artists from around the UK.
