A fresh batch of artists have been announced for Victoria Park’s ninth Field Day.

Rounding out the line-up are Boxed In, Cheatahs, Formation, Jolta, Murkage, Rat Boy, Vaults, Zibra, All Tvvins, Cut Ribbons, Kagoule, Tuff Love and Whilk & Misky. Outside of the Jägerhaus, QT joins fellow PC Music avatars A.G. Cook and SOPHIE with a Saturday performance and Tame Impala’s Peter Bibby and Manchester electro-pop duo Bernard + Edith take to the stage on Sunday.
