It's safe to say Brits have gone wild for this year’s Forwards Festival lineup, and time is running out to get hold of tickets.

Set to take place on August 23 and 24, some of music’s biggest names of the moment will take to the stage at the massive gatherine at Bristol's Durdham Downs.

On Saturday, electronic DJ and producer Barry Can’t Swim will co-headline alongside Mercury Prize winners Ezra Collective. The next day, Doechii will make her highly-anticipated debut, with Jorja Smith and The Last Dinner Party also on the bill.

But the last time we checked, there aren't many tier one tickets left, so where can you buy Forwards Festival tickets and how much do they cost? Scroll down to find out everything you need to know now (before it's too late).

Where to buy tickets for Forwards Festival 2025 now

Tickets are still available to purchase on See Tickets and AXS UK. Divided by tiers, tier one is the cheapest ticket on offer, but they’re almost gone. Essentially, the faster you get in there, the cheaper the tickets will be.

The only tier one tickets left are for the Saturday at £69.34 per person. If you’re planning to attend with your pals, then you can save money by purchasing a bundle of six at £67.56 each (tier three). There appears to be more tickets available on AXS UK at the same price, so it's worth checking both sites before making a decision.

At the time of writing this, the cheapest weekend ticket comes in at £127.99 (tier two).
