Shambhala Festival’s 2025 edition has stirred a unique buzz on r/shambhala—a mix of measured hype and quiet confidence. Following a monumental 25th anniversary last year stacked with headliners, this year’s lineup is viewed by many as more low-key but rich with potential.
Fans call the bill “A tier” and emphasize that Shambhala’s true power lies beyond headline acts. It’s about the community, vibe, and culture that keep the festival legendary. Longtime attendees say they’re less concerned with the names and more eager to soak in the atmosphere.
Some express minor letdowns over genre representation, particularly in drum & bass, while others flatly label the lineup as the “worst in a decade.” Still, almost all agree that the festival’s spirit and experience remain unmatched.
Shambhala 2025 headliners include:
Tape B, Chris Lake, Vintage Culture, Flying Lotus, Elderbrook, Wooli, Rezz, Excision, Slander, Big Gigantic, Skream, Sofi Tukker, TroyBoi, Apashe
Notable undercard names:
Dirt Monkey, Levity, Mersiv, YDG, The Funk Hunters, Whipped Cream, Opiuo, Odd Mobb, Ivy Lab, Dombresky
The lineup has sold out in under 24 hours, proving Shambhala’s community support remains rock solid despite the debate.
This year’s edition is shaping up to be a quiet contender for a sleeper hit, with the heart and soul of Shambhala beating strong.
