History:
Alongside the acts announced,
RADAR's commitment to a musical and gaming paradise continues: their music & gaming market will return. Expect to be wowed by a retro arcade, the best new instruments and music tech, and much more.
Also demonstrating their commitment to new bands,
RADAR will continue to donate a portion of ticket sales proceeds to
Music Venue Trust and
Save Our Scene's Liveline Fund, in order to support grassroots music venues.
RADAR - the UK's most exciting new progressive music festival - moved to Manchester in 2023.
RADAR pride themselves on providing a first home for the best international artists - previous years have seen
Dirty Loops' (2022) and
The Callous Daoboys' (2023) first UK shows.
Joining the list were
RADAR 2024's Friday headliners - synth royalty
The Midnight, making their UK festival debut. Accompanying them were Saturday headliners
TesseracT, as the UK prog metal titans delivered a special War Of Being album set. Finally, closing the festival on Sunday, modern progressive titans
Leprous performed a world-first live, by request fan set.
RADAR 2023 saw Friday headliners
Sleep Token joining
Periphery (Sunday) and
Igorrr (Saturday) among a host of the best from the UK and global progressive underground.
RADAR capped their intensely impressive 2022 by winning the Best New Festival Award at the UK Festival Awards on 6th December in Manchester, and were shortlisted for Best Small Festival and Best Metropolitan Festival at 2023 and 2024's UK Festival Awards.
With their mixture of international talent and confirmed homegrown success, RADAR Festival has already positioned themselves as a champion of forward-thinking, guitar-led progressive music. No genre boundaries, welcome to all,
RADAR Festival was launched in 2019 to acclaim, with performances from
Animals As Leaders, Agent Fresco, Rolo Tomassi, among others. Following the COVID hiatus,
RADAR Festival 2022 expanded to three days with triumphant appearances from
Leprous, Haken, Dirty Loops, Plini, Conjurer, Soen and more.
RADAR Festival is all about pushing boundaries - this year introducing fresh genres to the line-up and stages - and this is just the beginning.
