We are kicking off on Friday at 5pm with a heady mix of jazz, funk and hip hop on our main stage with supporting acts in The Botanist, Brewhouse and Kitchen, Cosy Club and Babel over the weekend.
"Last year we welcomed more than 30,000 people, so with an extra day this year we're hoping to share the fun with a lot more. We can't wait to soak up the summer vibes and enjoy a fantastic weekend."
