High Tide Festival is officially coming back in 2025, with organisers confirming the event will return to McEwan Park, Wellington on 8th November, 2025. Now in its fourth year, the high-energy dance and bass music celebration has become a staple on New Zealand’s summer festival circuit, drawing local legends and international talent to the capital’s scenic waterfront.
Following a massive 2024 edition that featured artists like Friction, S.P.Y, Example, Vibe Chemistry, Nicole Millar, and Scribe, excitement is already building for what the 2025 lineup will bring. Today’s teaser video has fuelled speculation, featuring a track by UK bass producer Bushbaby—hinting he may be among the names set to perform this November.
Known for its tight production, stacked stages, and immersive atmosphere, High Tide continues to elevate Wellington’s presence on the global electronic festival map. With a blend of drum and bass, house, grime, and hip hop, it remains a key fixture for fans looking to kick off their summer with high-octane energy and waterfront views.
More details, including the full artist lineup and ticket release info, are expected soon. Festivalgoers are encouraged to mark the date and prepare for another massive day by the harbour.
