Boundary-pushing DJ, producer, and label head Hannah Laing has unveiled the full line-up for her debut festival, doof In The Park, set to take over Camperdown Park, Dundee, on Saturday 5th July 2025.
Known for her anthemic records and electrifying performances at festivals like Creamfields, Terminal V, Warehouse Project and Parklife, Hannah has built a reputation as one of the UK’s most exciting DJ talents. Now, she brings her doof brand to life in its biggest scale yet, curating and headlining her first festival in her hometown.
Uniting thousands for a high-energy celebration of trance, techno, and hard house, doof In The Park promises heavy beats, epic basslines, and an atmosphere only a Scottish crowd can create. Leading the charge as a Very Special Guest on the ‘doof for life’ Main Stage is Armin van Buuren, returning to Scotland for the first time since 2019.

The 12k capacity Big Top Main Stage – doof for life – is a celebration of Hannah’s roots, from growing up in a raver household to becoming one of the UK’s top DJs and producers. Inspired by the sounds of her parents’ record collection and the anthems that shaped her early raving experiences, her journey has been one of evolution—from clubber to DJ, from DJ to producer, and now, festival curator. Fish56Octagon delivers bass-heavy beats with raw energy; Judge Jules brings anthemic trance classics; Lisa Lashes, a pioneer of hard house, brings euphoric energy; Van Damn keeps things rolling with high-impact feel good music; and Will Atkinson blends trance and techno with driving force.

Speaking on the line-up announcement Hannah comments: “I’ve handpicked some of my biggest influences. Artists who have shaped my sound and artists in the current scene who I love and know will bring the best energy. However, not forgetting the local up and coming artists. Everything from techno, to trance & hard house If you don’t know any of these artists yet, please get to know. This is going to be special!”
