2000 Trees Lineup

It’s been a long time coming, but we’re finally preparing to rock the Cotswolds at 2000 Trees festival 2022. With tickets flying out the door in the past week it looks like a sell-out is coming. A stacked line-up featuring headline slots from American rockers Jimmy Eat World, and Thrice on Thursday and Friday, and fans favourite punk rockers Idles wrapping up the festival on Saturday night.

Organiser and booker James Scarlett told us “There is a lot to be excited about at Trees this year… Particular highlights for me are Twin Atlantic doing a special forest acoustic set, the Xcerts headlining Wednesday night in the Forest with a full on rock set and just generally watching the best up & coming rock acts in the world. I can’t wait!”
