PRE-SALE THURSDAY 05 DECEMBER -  10AM (GMT) - 11AM (CET) 

A mammoth new one-day festival for passionate music lovers of all ages. Forever Now will debut on 22 June 2025 at legendary venue The National Bowl, Milton Keynes. A true celebration of current alternative culture, the festival will be a unique gathering for fans of post-punk music, fashion and literature.

This summer’s musical tour-de-force, Forever Now will explore the cultural phenomenon of the darker underbelly of creativity, from new wave to post-punk, psychedelia and alt-rock. With a soon-to-be-announced line-up of many of the genres’ most pioneering artists, the festival will celebrate the lifestyle and attitude that started at the tail end of the 70’s - a time when NME, Sounds and Melody Maker helped define the music taste of a generation, and era-defining artists created a movement that remains significant in the cultural zeitgeist to this day.

The one-day multi-stage festival will not only feature two stages dedicated to music, but also a third stage, The Echo Chamber. Hosted by legendary music journalist John Robb, The Echo Chamber will delve into the artistry, movement and culture through in-depth discussions with renowned artists, going behind the scenes to reveal their stories.

Forever Now isn’t just an event; it’s a movement—an electrifying gathering for those who thrive on individuality and connection. From the fashionably dark to the fiercely unconventional, all are welcome to revel in a day of unforgettable music and community. This is a festival where nostalgia meets discovery, where new and devoted fans unite, and where forever truly begins now.
