Diana Ross, McFly among performers at Henley Festival 2025
Diana Ross, McFly and Rick Astley are among the performers at this year's Henley Festival.

Diana Ross, McFly and Rick Astley have been announced as among the performers at this year's Henley Festival.

The five-night event is noted as the UK's only black-tie music and arts festival, blending an eclectic music lineup with comedy, cabaret and art installations.

Ross is the headliner on The Floating Stage, presenting A Symphonic Celebration alongside the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra, performing songs such as 'Ain't No Mountain High Enough', 'Stop! In the Name of Love', 'Upside Down' and 'I'm Coming Out'.

McFly will play The Floating Stage on Thursday night, with Astley following on Friday, while Sunday will feature a performance from Matteo Bocelli, son of the revered Andrea Bocelli.

The comedy lineup includes Ed Byrne, Matt Forde and Ivo Graham, and in the festival's club Pure Heaven, Jo Whiley will play a special late-night set.

The festival takes place in Henley-on-Thames from July 9 to 13.
