LITTLE SIMZ CURATES MELTDOWN 2025

Little Simz is will be the curator of the 30th edition of Meltdown, the UK’s longest running artist led festival.

The London born rapper and multi-award winning artist will take over the Southbank Centre, curating a genre-defying lineup and even performing herself. Alongside live shows, there will be free events featuring grassroots collectives and local organisations.

Following in the footsteps of legends like Chaka Khan and David Bowie, Little Simz promises an 11 day celebration of art, music and culture. With past hits like Grey Area and I Might Be Introvert, plus her 2024 performance at Glastonbury, she’s set to make Meltdown her own.

Meldown Fest 2025 will be running from Thursday 12th June till Sunday 22nd June at the Southbank Centre. The first lineup drops this spring.
