Meltchester reveals full lineup for skatepark fest

Meltchester Vol #4 brings a whole day of psych and garage rock to Projekts Skatepark in Manchester on Saturday 17th May 2025. The festival has revealed its full lineup for the day, featuring a bunch of bands from across the country and beyond. 

Brought to us by Sour Grapes Records, Meltchester’s 2025 edition will be headlined by London-based post-punk band Snapped Ankles, best known for their tune ‘I Want My Minutes Back’. 

Brighton post-punkers KEG join the lineup, as do rockers The Wytches, psych-rock two-piece Earth Tongue, Canadian noise-rock band Gloin, fiercely heavy duo SLAP RASH, the raw and chaotic Heavy Lungs, Manchester punks Dead Stilettos, and finally, Divorce Finance from Leeds. An absolutely stacked lineup.

The grassroots gathering, just a five-minute walk from Piccadilly Train Station, is the perfect day out for fans of punk, noise, garage, rock, indie, and psych sounds. As well as music, attendees can enjoy food, drinks, and of course free skating. 

Skiddle is proud to sponsor Meltchester as it brings another day packed with incredible music to the city.
