The festival has also revealed the day splits for all of its previously announced acts. The first day will take in sets from Gazelle Twin, UKAEA, Melt-Banana and Dame Area, among others, while the second day will feature performances from The Body & Dis Fig, Senyawa, Emma Ruth Rundle, MC Yallah x Debmaster, and more.

This year’s event will be rounded out by a day of music including Bonnie “Prince” Billy, Mary Lattimore, John Francis Flynn, Brìghde Chaimbeul, Robert Aiki Aubrey Lowe, Mohammad Syfkhan and the aforementioned Roberts, among others.
