Tramlines Festival 2025 – who's headlining, set times and weather forecast
Tramlines Festival is kicking off today, and fans can expect huge names across the weekend. This weekend's event, held at Hillsborough Park, Sheffield, will be headlined by two locals, Pulp, The Reytons and also Leicester rockers, Kasabian, on the Sarah Nulty main stage.
Bosses have gone all out once again for the annual event, which pulls in the biggest names across music and comedy, as well as giving a platform to lesser-known musicians. Speaking about having Pulp headline, Tramlines' Alex Deadman said: "The first year I was properly part of the team was 2011, and they were talking about it then.
"They were a bit out of our reach. It's wonderful to see it happen again. Since the booking came in, obviously, they've exploded. There's the album and Glastonbury. Every time I turn the TV on, they seem to be talking about Pulp."
He went on to tell BBC Radio Sheffield: "It's going to be one of those moments." Reflecting on The Reytons headlining on Saturday, Alex added: "Two local headliners, I don't know how we'll top that. People might remember the Clifton Park gig, and that was such a good moment; it breathed life into the park.
"There were more than 20,000 people there, so yeah, I don't know what we'll do next year." Speaking about Pulp being booked, Alex said: "When I heard that the booking had been made, I was absolutely thrilled. I think it's only the fourth or fifth time they've played in Sheffield since the millennium. I don't think that they've ever done anything big outdoors. I actually went to see Pulp in 1996 at the [Sheffield] Arena, one of the first gigs I went to. It was the week he [Jarvis Cocker] had been at the BRIT Awards with Michael Jackson."
Back for its 17th year, Tramlines have ensured that everybody is catered for, with the likes of The K's, John Cooper Clarke, Natasha Bedingfield, Heather Small, Rizzle Kicks, The Rosadocs, Scouting For Girls, Red Rum Club, The Clause, and The Royston Club all performing on various stages.
Around 40,000 music and comedy lovers will flock to Hillsborough and soak up the atmosphere at the Sarah Nulty main stage, T'Other Stage, The Leadmill Stage, The Open Arms, and The Library.
If you're heading to Hillsborough Park, here's everything you need to know – including the weather and set times.
What's the weather like?
The Mirror approached the Met Office for their weather forecast for this weekend. A spokesperson said: "Festivalgoers at Hillsborough Park should prepare for cloudier skies on Friday, with the possibility of light rain, particularly over western hills. The weekend will be influenced by the broader westerly regime, with showers or longer spells of rain likely. Sheffield's position in the north means breezy conditions are also possible, and rain could be more persistent at times."
On Friday, the Met Office have forecast sunshine throughout the day, with the highest temperature being 23 degrees at 4pm. Meanwhile, weather conditions are expected to be the same on Saturday, with 4pm hitting 22 degrees. But on Sunday, those in attendance can expect some light clouding starting at 1am and lasting until around 4pm. The temperature is also set to drop, ever so slightly, with the hottest temperature being 20 degrees at 4pm.

Sir Alex Ferguson buys Glasgow flat after selling mansion
According to the Scottish Sun, Govan-born Sir Alex has purchased a property in the West End. The newspaper revealed he paid £500,000 for a luxury flat in Hyndland in September last year, months after selling his Cheshire mansion for £3.25million. A source told the publication: "It's good to see him back in a city he calls home. 'People in Glasgow have loved seeing him.'

Women's captain Nicola Docherty shared a photo on social media of herself with the Manchester United legend. It's unclear why Sir Alex was at the Scottish Premiership club's Milngavie base, but Docherty recounted their conversation over coffee. She captioned her Instagram story: "Met a legend today, Sir Alex! "His greatest quote - 'There was no way I could contemplate taking the England job. "Can you imagine me doing that? "A Scotsman? "'I always joked that I would take the position and relegate them'."

The football great, 83, snapped up the apartment in leafy Hyndland months after selling his mansion down south. Sign up for the Rangers newsletter Sign up 4 Sir Alex has snapped up a flat in Glasgow 4 The legend posed with staff at a plush Glasgow restaurant 4 Ferguson as at Ibrox to watch Rangers face Panathinaikos Credit: Reuters 4 Hyndland is an area in the West End of Glasgow The ex-Rangers player was spotted at the Ibrox club's training ground earlier this month and has been snapped at a plush restaurant in the city. And we can reveal he appears to have made moves to spend even more time in the home of his birth. Property records show he bought a flat in the city's leafy Hyndland area last September. The purchase came five months after he sold the luxury £3.25million home in Cheshire he shared with late wife Lady Cathy, who died aged 84 in October 2023. A source said: "It's good to see him back in a city he calls home. 'People in Glasgow have loved seeing him.' Earlier this week the footie icon paid a visit to Rangers' Auchenhowie training centre and caught up with some of the club's current staff and players. Rangers Women captain Nicola Docherty shared a picture of herself alongside the managerial great in the training centre as she beamed on social media: 'Met a legend today, Sir Alex!' Ferguson has also been spotted in Glasgow's West End as he headed to popular restaurant Ox and Finch in Sauchiehall Street. A description of the property hails its balcony and "wonderful, peaceful position" Eric Black on the Gothenburg Greats, Sir Alex Ferguson & remembering Neale Cooper Sir Alex was born in Govan and his father worked in the shipbuilding industry. He began his football career as an amateur with Queen's Park aged 16. He played for Rangers for two seasons from 1967 to 1969 and won the European Cup Winners Cup with Aberdeen as a manager in 1983. New Ibrox boss Russell Martin has said the support from the legend has been 'incredible'. Martin played under Sir Alex's son Darren Ferguson at Peterborough United. And the Rangers manager said Darren put him in touch with his dad. After the great's recent visit, Martin said: 'He's been great. He's been so supportive of me personally, which is incredible. It's the first time he's been here and it was just brilliant for everyone to see him,' Last month we told how his family firm boosted its value last year to almost £27million. ACF Sports Promotions, founded by the former Aberdeen and Manchester United boss had £28.1million in assets last June. Revenue is said to be derived from the Glasgow-born dad of three's 'appearances, image rights and royalties'. But Sir Alex, 83, stepped down as a director of the company last year and gave control to his oldest son Mark, 56. He called Lady Cathy his 'bedrock'.

How England fans are preparing for the Euro 2025 final
"We're in another final, am I dreaming?"This, one England fan tells me, will probably be his first thought when he wakes up on Sunday – the day England take on Spain in a bid to retain their title as Euro 2025 from London, is one of many enthusiastic supporters of the Lionesses that will be at the match, which is taking place at St Jakob-Park in the Swiss city of Basel. Just one match stands in the way of England lifting the trophy and Alex is one of many fans planning how to spend the day so he can handle his the team's focus on wellness he says "I'll try and go for a walk before the game, because it's a really nice, calming atmosphere when it's just myself".His is the voice of experience - the first final of a major women's tournament that Alex attended was the World Cup final in 2011, which was held in Germany."Women's football is a really amazing environment. You can talk to so many people," he says, adding that he used to be "quite insecure" but has been able to gain confidence in the inclusive atmospheres of tournaments like this one. Like any seasoned football fan, Alex has, over the years, developed a few superstitions that will be in play on Sunday ahead of the involve getting up at 09:00 on the dot and drinking from the same coffee mug."I find mugs give me good luck," he laughs before adding that he tries to stay off social media because it can make him anxious. 'The fans, the atmosphere, the energy' Alex isn't the only England supporter I meet at one of Basel's fan zones, that has match day from Kent, who spent her 18th birthday watching England's semi-final against Italy, says she has to put her jewellery on in a certain also likes to wear her grandfather's Arsenal top that dates from the mid-90s -but because she wasn't expecting to still be in Switzerland for the final has instructed her mum – who is also a women's football fan - to wear it instead."I just want to be there [the stadium] now," she says. "I think we can do it." Everyone I speak to tells me their pre-match plans involve meeting up with other fans at their designated headquarters in the Messeplatz area sometime during the morning, ahead of their walk to the stadium in the from Doncaster in South Yorkshire, plans to get up at around 07:00 and get her England home shirt on. All England fans have been asked to wear white for the final if will then grab some breakfast on her way out."You know when you're nervous, you can't eat properly, so I need to eat in the morning," Jessica came out to Switzerland on Thursday morning and has never been to a Euros final before, having only become interested in women's football in the past year."I would have got into it sooner, but I just genuinely never knew about it. The coverage wasn't good," she is one of the many fans who have travelled alone to Switzerland and for whom the sense of community is a big coming to Switzerland and getting a ticket to the final has not been cheap, for her "it's about the memories and the people you meet - it's just amazing," she asked about England's chances, she's in no doubt."We've got the fans, we've got the atmosphere, we've got the energy."We've got the players on the field and on the bench and I think we've got a very, very good chance." Tehya, Izzy's friend, tells me she will also try to have a "light breakfast" to line her stomach ahead of the match and speak to her family back in the pair had planned to head home on Friday because they couldn't afford tickets to the final but managed to get hold of some spares and arrange extra time off England win they plan to celebrate through the night, as they have to be at the airport for a 06:00 flight back to the UK on Izzy, Tehya has limited outfit options. She only brought the England away shirt - which is not white - but that won't affect her support for the Lionesses, whom she says have "dug deep" during the competition."They've played to the last whistle. They haven't stopped fighting. I think that's what's so special about this team, which no other team has."
