The line-up for Capital’s Summertime Ball with Barclaycard 2025 has been announced, with Mariah Carey topping the bill. The event, which is set to take place at Wembley Stadium on June 15, will also feature performances from Benson Boone, Lola Young, and KSI. According to Billboard, this year’s festival promises to be an exciting one, with a mix of global superstars and today’s biggest hit music artists.
This year’s Summertime Ball will mark Mariah Carey’s debut performance at the event, as well as her first UK show in six years.

Benson Boone, who played to a crowd of 80,000 at the event last year, is also set to perform. The show will feature a highly anticipated British boy band brawl between Busted and McFly, who will "go song-for-song in an unmissable showdown… expect a set packed with anthems from Busted’s ‘Crashed The Wedding,’ ‘Year 3000’ and ‘Who’s David,’ to McFly’s ‘Obviously,’ ‘5 Colours In Her Hair’ and ‘All About You," according to Billboard. It’s a battle of the bands that will have Wembley singing every word.
