Splendour Festival Ends After 17 Years

Splendour Festival is calling it quits after 15 years — but not without a bang. Facing skyrocketing costs, fierce competition, and a toughening city council landscape, organizers announce the end of the beloved Nottingham staple. Despite a five-year deal secured for 2025, the economic squeeze and rising ticket prices made sustainability impossible. Still, they’re packing the final edition with big names like Craig David and Primal Scream — aiming for a legendary send-off. And while Splendour fades, the team vows to keep bringing music to Nottingham — maybe even back at Wollaton Park, just not under the old banner.
