Joining the big-name headliners Noel Gallagher’s High Flying Birds, Paolo Nutini, Elbow, Jungle, First Aid Kit and The War On Drugs are a slew of massive supports.

Supporting Noel Gallagher’s High Flying Birds on opening night are Australian indie electro pop band Confidence Man; Elbow will be joined by London pop-rockers The Magic Numbers and Jesca Hoop, who’s new album Order of Romance is out later this year. On Saturday night electronic pop duo Jungle will be joined by Kelly Lee Owens, who has collaborated with the likes of Björk, St. Vinc ent and John Cale.

Ibibio Sound Machine, with their African and electronic influences also join Saturday’s line up, alongside RnB star Joel Culpepper, and Porij, who was described by the Guardian as ‘one to watch.’ Sunday 26 June sees Bristol local Katy J Pearson and Bess Atwell, described by Notion as ‘undoubtedly one to watch…with crystalline, often ethereal vocals and sweeping, soft guitar-led melodies’, take to the stage to support First Aid Kit. Closing the music event series on 27 June alongside The War On Drugs is Nashville’s Soccer Mommy. 4
