The comedians and actors Greg Davies and Bridget Christie have been announced as Latitude Festival's comedy headliners for 2025.

They will headline the TK Maxx Presents the Comedy Arena at Henham Park, near Southwold, Suffolk, from 24-27 July.

Other comedians including Kerry Godliman, Amy Gledhill, Paul Sinha, Daniel Foxx and more have also been announced.

Davies said he could not wait "to muck in" with other festival-goers.

"I'm thrilled to be playing Latitude and can't wait to muck in, sleep in a small tent and use the communal toilets with the rest of you," he said.

"I'm joking of course, I will be arriving by horse-drawn carriage and will be quickly spirited away to a nearby hotel the second I step off stage. See you there."

Christie added: "As a middle class woman of a certain age, I can't wait to be back headlining Latitude with my 'harmless banter' about middle class men of a certain age."

The festival's director, Melvin Benn, added the comedy line up was "truly special".

"Latitude has always been a place where audiences can discover the best in comedy, and this year is no exception," he said.

"We're proud to boast the summer's most impressive comedy lineup, a golden opportunity to see the biggest names in the industry before they head to Edinburgh."

Music headliners previously announced for the festival include Sting, Snow Patrol, Fatboy Slim, Basement Jaxx and Elbow.
