Malmo Melodic, the festival taking place in Malmo, Sweden from July 25 to 27, 2025 has revealed the lineup of acts gracing the stage for the sophomore edition of the event. The roster of bands was presented via UK radio host Steve Price along with Kieran Dargan during a special Steve Price Rock Show on Sunday October 20, 2024.
Malmo Melodic made the following post on Facebook two days after the radio show reveal:
“How much fun was the launch show on Sunday? Brought back fond memories of yesteryear and it was so cool to read the comments as the bands were announced!
The reaction has been amazingly positive and the tickets have been flying out, so we can’t thank you enough for your faith and support! It’s been incredible.
So who are we looking forward to seeing the most?“
