Godiva Festival is set to make a triumphant return in 2025 as organisers reveal the awaited dates.
The festival will take place over three days in the summer from Friday 4 – Sunday 6 July 2025.
The event will see a weekend of music, entertainment and family-friendly fun in the city’s War Memorial Park.
Renowned for showcasing a diverse line-up of top-tier musical acts alongside the best of Coventry's local talent, Godiva Festival is the highlights of the city's event calendar.
Past line-ups have featured unforgettable performances from big name artists such as The Enemy, Mel C, Richard Ashcroft and Rudimental.
Tickets are set to go on sale in March. Details about ticket prices and the eagerly awaited line-up will be unveiled in the coming weeks, ensuring festival goers have time to plan for what promises to be a fantastic weekend.
Councillor Abdul Salam Khan, Deputy Leader of Coventry City Council and Cabinet Member for Events, said: “I'm delighted to announce that Godiva Festival will be returning in 2025 and will be taking place in July.
"Last year we hosted an unforgettable 25th Godiva Festival and we hope to build on that by putting the well-known names on stage alongside our fantastic local talent.
“As we eagerly anticipate the festival, it's important to acknowledge the economic benefits it brings to Coventry, particularly in terms of tourism.
“We also recognise the financial pressures faced by our attendees and with that in mind, we remain committed to keeping prices as low as possible whilst delivering a high quality event.
"The festival continues to be fuelled by the incredible support and love from Coventrians and those who travel to the festival alike. It remains a pivotal part of our city's cultural landscape and I hope both residents and visitors to the city see that it reflects the spirit of Coventry.
“We will be back soon with more information on ticket breakdown and pricing and of course to start sharing some of our line-up.”
Godiva Festival received an Improvers Certification from A Greener Future for sustainability measures in place at last year’s event.
Coventry College will again be the proud sponsors of the festival’s Family Field.
