Joining homegrown heroes CMAT, Bicep and Fontaines DC at the county's Curraghmore Estate will be 2000s US pop icon Nelly Furtado; UK indie outfit London Grammar; and Afrobeats bandleader Seun Kuti, backed by members of his legendary father Fela's Egypt 80 band.

Furtado returns to Ireland for only her third-ever headlining gig here; following a 2024 excursion to Dublin's Forbidden Fruit festival, while on a post-pandemic comeback trail, packing an enviable assortment of well-established pop hits.

Kuti and bandmates, meanwhile, are firm festival favourites in Ireland, figuring prominently in recent Guinness Cork Jazz Festival line-ups; they'll be touring new material executive-produced by veteran funk-rocker Lenny Kravitz.

Newly-added elsewhere in the lineup are avant-rock musician Geordie Greep, formerly of UK outfit Black Midi; much-fancied Cork indie-poppers Cliffords, off the back of a trip to Texas for SXSW; Donegal roots revivalist Muireann Bradley; and Dublin trad four-piece Landless, as well as DJ sets from legendary UK electronic producer Bonobo, and Kerry producer Shee.

This lineup announcement expands on last year's initial tranche of music announcements, which also included US singer and songwriter John Grant, UK production duo Leftfield's 30th-anniversary show, and new Irish music from Bricknasty, Gurriers and more.
