After Wednesday’s warm-up, Thursday marks the real kickoff of the 2025 Campus Festival in Debrecen. While yesterday’s programs clearly catered to local favorites and Hungarian audiences, tonight an international superstar will take the stage in the Big Forrest: John Newman is set to be the top act of the day.
The British singer-songwriter, known for hits like Love Me Again and Come and Get It, is expected to draw a huge crowd to the stadium stage. Organizers say Thursday will bring the festival into full swing, with attendance numbers expected to surge as many festival-goers specifically picked this day for the international headliners.
Yesterday’s opening day already set the tone: a hot summer evening, friends meeting up, street food, and plenty of great music awaited visitors. Today, alongside the international stars, Hungary’s leading acts will also take the stage.
The best is yet to come: Campus Festival promises strong lineups for both Friday and Saturday, so anyone who just warmed up over the first days will have plenty of chances to dive in over the weekend.
