Last weekend (June 6-8), LIDO Festival made its debut in Victoria Park. Gig-goers enjoyed sets from Massive Attack, Jamie XX and Nia Archives as they welcomed the brand new event. This weekend (June 13-15) is set to be even bigger, as LIDO welcomes Charli XCX, London Grammar, and an entire sub-festival appropriately called ‘Outbreak’.
Outbreak Festival was born in Manchester in 2011, and, according to LIDO’s organisers, ‘has built a major platform to the UK’s consistently thriving counterculture’. This year, it’s making its way down to the capital and bringing with it a ‘diverse and eclectic’ host of underground bands and artists.
This Friday, for one day only, Londoners will have the chance to experience Outbreak without getting a train up north. Here’s everything you need to know about Outbreak at LIDO this weekend.
RECOMMENDED: London is gearing up for a summer of hardcore punk.

How to get to LIDO festival
If you’re travelling by tube, the best stations to get off at are Mile End (District, Central and Hammersmith and City lines) and Bethnal Green (Central line), both of which are within walking distance of Viccy Park. Just be aware that there are no night services on the Hammersmith and City or District lines.
By bus, you can get any of the 8, 277, 309, 339, 388, D3 and D6 services, because they all have stops nearby the venue.
If you are using public transportation, make sure to check before you travel, and have a look here for this weekend’s disruptions.
Are there any tickets left for Outbreak at LIDO Festival 2025?
Yes, there are still tickets left for Outbreak, and you can buy them on the official LIDO website here. Day passes begin at £85.55.
What’s the weather looking like?
The weather forecast is currently alright, although it could be better. There is a yellow warning for thunderstorms for Greater London starting from 3pm, but temperatures are looking like they’ll be hitting mid-to-high twenties, so bring a light rain jacket to cover all bases.
We also recommend you up to date with the latest weather forecasts before you leave for the event tomorrow.
Afterparties
If all of that somehow isn’t enough, you can keep the party going at the Colour Factory, where DJs such as Kumo 99 and LustSickPuppy will be playing. You can grab your tickets for £13 here.
