Spread over two weekends, South Facing is a critically-acclaimed open-air concert series that has also announced Dutch electronic duo Tinlicker as the latest addition to an already stellar line-up, taking to the Crystal Palace Bowl for 2025 live exclusive on Sunday 16th August 2025. Following their massively successful UK tour earlier this year — which saw the duo sell out dates across the country — this event will see Tinlicker perform their largest-ever headline show, as well as the first time the duo headline a UK festival.
Known for emotionally charged dancefloor anthems and swept-up production, Tinlicker have made a formidable splash in the electronica community since their inception in 2012. Prolific and well-decorated as they come with gold and platinum plaques on the wall, they are also known for their genre-defying sound, with releases on major labels like Anjunadeep, mau5trap, Armada, and [PIAS] Électronique. Across the years, they have delivered three studio albums, amassed millions of streams, and collaborated with the likes of Brian Molko, Tom Smith, Julia Church, Ben Böhmer, Helsloot, and Circa Waves. Easily among the most exhilarating shows in recent memory, their performances have earned them a loyal following across Europe and North America and a well-deserved place as the torch carriers of the genre on the worldwide stage.
Now, the duo are introducing a new one-day event at a venue with a rich musical history, Crystal Palace Bowl. Often referred to as the spiritual home of live music in South London, the Bowl has welcomed legendary acts including Bob Marley, Pink Floyd, Elton John and The Beach Boys across its 150-year history.
And in the last few years, the South Facing Festival has transformed the venue, hosting an array of big name performers like London Grammar, The Streets, Jungle, Becky Hill, Noel Gallagher’s High Flying Birds, James, Richard Ashcroft, Max Richter and the English National Opera. This modern-age renaissance solidifies Crystal Palace Bowl as a dream visit for any music lovers.
Tinlicker themselves will curate the line-up for this special event, with a number of special guests to be announced in the coming weeks.
