About

Every late summer, the serene landscape of Norfolk transforms into a haven of discerning electronic music and immersive art as Houghton Music Festival unfolds. Set to captivate the senses once again in 2025, Houghton promises an intimate and meticulously curated experience showcasing cutting-edge sounds, unique artistic installations, and a dedicated community of music lovers, solidifying its place as a distinctive and highly anticipated electronic music festival event in the UK.

Since its inception, Houghton has quickly become a vital platform for a diverse and often more nuanced spectrum of electronic music, consistently curating lineups that celebrate both internationally acclaimed selectors and the UK’s own influential underground scene. Year after year, the festival’s stages, nestled within the natural beauty of the Norfolk countryside, have welcomed pioneers and innovators across genres, from deep house and techno architects to experimental electronic artists and beyond. Past editions have featured influential artists like Ricardo Villalobos, Craig Richards, Nicolas Lutz, Sonja Moonear, and Raresh, alongside the wealth of forward-thinking talent that defines the UK’s own electronic music community.

What distinguishes Houghton is its dedication to crafting a sophisticated and immersive festival experience that prioritizes sound quality, artistic integrity, and a strong sense of community. Situated within a carefully considered environment, Houghton blends exceptional audio with thought-provoking art installations, creating an intellectually stimulating and aesthetically refined atmosphere. The festival fosters a deep connection between the music, the natural surroundings, and an open-minded audience.

In 2025, Houghton Festival will continue to champion the artistry and community of electronic music, offering a late summer weekend filled with unparalleled sonic journeys, artistic discovery, and a shared appreciation for quality and detail. Whether you’re a longtime devotee of the scene or seeking a more refined festival experience for the first time, Houghton delivers a distinctly UK celebration of underground electronic music culture.
