McFly are set to bring their dynamic, high-energy performance to Forest Live 2025, performing at Westonbirt Arboretum in Gloucestershire on Saturday, 21 June 2025. The legendary British band will captivate fans with a set that celebrates their remarkable 21-year career and highlights tracks from their latest album, Power to Play.
Formed in 2003, McFly quickly rose to fame with their breakthrough hit, “Five Colours In Her Hair,” marking the beginning of an extraordinary musical journey. Over two decades, the band—comprising Tom Fletcher, Danny Jones, Dougie Poynter, and Harry Judd—have consistently pushed boundaries and defied expectations. Their achievements are nothing short of impressive: seven #1 singles, seven Top 10 albums, and sales of over 10 million records, earning multiple Platinum certifications along the way.
McFly’s impact on the UK music scene is undeniable. They have become known for their infectious pop-rock sound, as well as for breaking records. Notably, they remain the youngest band to ever have a debut album debut at #1, a feat that even surpassed the legendary Beatles. Their musical evolution has seen them experiment with new sounds, and last year’s Power to Play marked a bold new chapter. With a thrilling mix of hard rock and pop-punk, the album was a high-octane release that captured the spirit of the band’s adventurous energy. Featuring standout singles like “God of Rock & Roll” and “Where Did All The Guitars Go?“, Power to Play charted at #2 on the Official Albums Chart.
The band’s recent touring in support of the album has been nothing short of exhilarating. McFly kicked things off with two surprise shows at the Underworld in London, offering fans a rare, intimate experience. This was followed by a performance at the prestigious Royal Variety Performance and a sold-out headline show at Alexandra Palace. They celebrated their 21st anniversary with two unforgettable shows at the O2 Arena, where they revisited their greatest hits while also introducing fans to the new sounds of Power to Play.
As McFly prepare for their Forest Live appearance, fans can expect a set that both reflects on their illustrious career and offers a taste of their exciting future. The band’s performance at Westonbirt Arboretum promises to be a celebration of two decades of success and a showcase of their continued musical evolution.
Tickets for Forest Live 2025 are expected to sell out quickly, as McFly’s live shows are renowned for their high-energy performances and undeniable charisma. Don’t miss the chance to see McFly in this unique setting, where their rock and pop-punk anthems will sound even more exhilarating against the stunning backdrop of the arboretum.
