Secret Dreams Music & Arts Festival will return to Legend Valley in 2025 for another weekend celebrating the intersection of bass and jam cultures. The fourth-annual festival will bring headliners Pretty Lights (two sets) and Tipper (two nights) to Thornville, OH on July 17th, 18th, and 19th.

Topping the lineup for Secret Dreams 2025 are Of The Trees, Daily Bread, two nights of Shpongle (Simon Postford live – sunset and hallucinogen sets), Dr. Fresch, two nights of Lotus, two nights of Opiuo including a sunrise set, two nights of Papadosio, and two nights of The Werks. The festival will also host Alix Perez (1985 takeover), Dirtwire, Dogs in a Pile, Eprom, two sets of The Floozies (including a house party DJ set), Mickman, Shades, Spoonbill, SunSquabi, Ternion Sound, Truth (extended set), and the new lespecial and Yheti collab Liminoid.

Balkan Bump, Big Blitz, Crawdad Sniper, Dizgo, Future Joy, Ghost Gardens, Jimkata, Klo, Mary Droppinz, Monty, Myself Included, and Sugar Nova fill out the remainder of the initial lineup, with many more artists to be announced. Tickets for Secret Dreams 2025 are on sale now on the festival’s website.

The Secret Dreams lineup announcement follows Pretty Lights‘ revelation last week of an inaugural curated festival in Buena Vista, CO dubbed Luminescent Emergence: Yahn Dawn. In that announcement, the livetronic project headed by Derek Vincent Smith noted that Yahn Dawn would be “the only band event of the summer.” An apparent contradiction of that statement, Pretty Lights’ Secret Dreams sets are billed as “horizon sprinter” and “the prismatic fleet,” the meanings of which are unclear at this time.

The Secret Dreams appearance will also come as one of the final appearances by enigmatic British DJ Tipper, who announced he will stop performing in 2025. Tipper has not yet officially confirmed his final concerts, though communications from his camp have pointed to a Labor Day Weekend sendoff, possibly at the Orion Amphitheater in Huntsville, AL. He is also set to host his own curated festival at The Gorge Amphitheater over 4th of July Weekend with Shpongle, Ott, LTJ Bukem, and many more.

Tipper’s management team helped launch Secret Dreams in 2022 along with former Resonance Festival partner Dave Kriner, The Werks drummer Rob Chafin, and several others. Revisit Live For Live Music‘s interview with Chafin on the origins and evolution of Secret Dreams here.
