The festival will be set across seven stages again, with Pressure, Water Tower, Orbit, Siren, Cedar, Commune and Hi-Hat all set to return; crowds at Pressure can expect “intimate club vibes” while the Water Tower will offer a 360-degree rave view.
The festival is set to run between 12:PM and 10:30PM and tickets start from £30.
Meanwhile, after parties, set times and B2B performances will be announced later in the year.
2024’s line-up saw a similarly star-stuffed roster of acts take the stage including Shanti Celeste, Ross From Friends, Moxie and Kode 9.
Waterworks’ programming co-director Sandy Marris said: “This year we’re presenting our most sonically diverse line-up so far we’re excited how UK and global influences are merging more than ever, and the new ground feels delightfully fertile.”

She added: “We’re constantly challenging ourselves to expand the sounds on offer – not to be stuck in our ways but also make sure we keep the essence of a festival routed in UK and London dance music culture.”
