Award-winning music festival Cadstock has announced a fifteen-act lineup for its fifteenth year at Victoria Park, Cadoxton.
Taking place on July 12th and 13th, organisers say the free-to-enter festival aims to bring fun, good times, and happy memories in the sun, with family and friends.
Fifteen acts will perform on the bandstand over the weekend, complemented by games, tasty treats, drinks and a new family zone, to keep all ages occupied and entertained.
Despite a challenging couple of years for the festival, the continued support of Barry Town Council and the local community, who collectively donated £3,500 to help offset the increasing costs of the event in 2024, means Cadstock now has a bright future ahead of it.
This year's lineup includes a mix of well-known local acts and community choirs, alongside new favourites, covering every musical genre.

At 12 pm on Saturday, 12th July, Tenovus Choir will return to Victoria Park, after becoming a regular fixture at the event in recent years, followed by Hope 4 Change and local upcoming musician Harrison Ollier.
From 2 pm, bands One Man Down, Little Giants, Velvet Sound, The Brides and The Four Horsemen will take to the stage.
On Sunday 13th July, music will open with the growing Community group “Super Choir”, followed by popular local singer Aggi Evans.
After wowing crowds in 2024, the 7-piece Swing Jump Jive Band St Louis Express will return to the Bandstand before Tumbling Dice and Ecstatic Caravan. The weekend will conclude with Cadstock favourites Black Jam Circus, a crazy originals band inspired by ska, reggae and indie rock and local rockers Stonehouse.
Cadstock 2025 has been supported by Barry Town Council, partnered with Bro Radio and sponsored by Barry Town FC, Roperhurst, Empress Piercing and LMF Motor Factors.
Local businesses looking to support the event can get in touch via Facebook.
