Drake
Wireless Festival 2025 is set to make history as Canadian rap superstar Drake becomes the first-ever artiste to headline all three days of the event. Taking place from July 11th to 13th at Finsbury Park, London, this move marks a massive first in the festival’s 20-year history, shaking up its traditional format of having different headliners each night.

Each of Drake’s performances is expected to deliver something unique, with different setlists and surprise guest appearances, turning the weekend into a once-in-a-lifetime experience for fans. Alongside Drake, the festival boasts a strong international lineup including African and Caribbean heavyweights like Burna Boy, Popcaan, Spice, Masicka, and a virtual performance from Vybz Kartel, spotlighting the diaspora’s influence on global urban music.

Other big names on the main stages include PARTYNEXTDOOR, Summer Walker, Boy Better Know, Leon Thomas, Nemzzz, and Lancey Foux, while DJ AG will keep energy high with vibrant sets across the weekend. Rising talents like Uncle Waffles, Roy Woods, Skeete, and Izzy Bossy will also be lighting up the secondary stages, giving emerging voices a powerful platform.

However, the festival’s late full lineup announcement stirred controversy online. Fans were divided—some praised it as the “best lineup ever,” while others criticized the last-minute reveal and speculated that the budget was mostly spent on booking Drake.

Despite the mixed reactions, Wireless 2025 remains one of the most anticipated music events of the summer, bridging continents, genres, and cultures. With Drake at the helm for three unforgettable nights, the festival is poised to deliver a historic celebration of urban music on a global scale.
