RAYE at All Points East: start time, last-minute tickets, potential setlist and what you need to know

It’s weekend two of All Points East, which means more reasons to head over to Victoria Park, with more music, and a brand new slate of headliners. This weekend, Barry Can’t Swim is top billed for Friday August 22, the Maccabees will close the festival out on Sunday August 24, and former Time Out cover star RAYE will light up the stage on Saturday evening (August 23).

The lineup for Saturday is stacked full of some of the most exciting up-and-coming pop girls, as well as some dance and rap artists. Even after Doechii pulled out of the day fest for Saturday, the excellent likes of Tyla, Eliza Rose, Jade and Cat Burns remain on the lineup. Doechii has also since been replaced with FKA twigs, which is a pretty fair swap if you ask us. 

Lucky enough to be heading to east London to see RAYE this weekend? Here’s everything you need to know about the event, from timings to last-minute ticket availability. 

When is RAYE playing All Points East?

The singer is headlining APE this Saturday, August 23 2025.

What time do gates open?

The gates will open for general entry at 2pm.

If you’re lucky enough to have VIP or Primary Entry tickets, you’ll be able to come into the festival site a bit earlier, at 1pm.

What time will RAYE come on stage?

She’s scheduled to take to APE’s main East Stage at 9.15pm. RAYE is expected to perform for 90 minutes, finishing her set just before the 11pm curfew.

Full lineup and stage times

There are loads of brilliant artists heading to Victoria Park this Saturday. Split across six stages, you’ll be able to catch Cat Burns, Jade, Tyla, and plenty more. Unfortunately, sub-headliner Doechii had to pull out of the festival, but don’t fear – she’s since been replaced with FKA twigs.

Why is Doechii not playing at All Points East?

All Points East announced on Tuesday (August 19) that US rapper Doechii would no longer be performing this Saturday. She has pulled out of three upcoming Europe shows including All Points East, Bristol’s Forwards Festival, and Paris’ Rock En Seine.

The organisers said that ‘She is an incredible artist, and, like all of her fans, we were hugely excited to see her on stage. We'd like to apologise to any disappointed fans and hope to welcome Doechii to All Points East in the future’.

Who is replacing Doechii?

FKA twigs will headline the West Stage instead. Catch her set from 8.10pm to 9.05pm.
