The first round of line-up announcements for this years Y Not Festival has been made via music video, and includes headline acts such as Dizzee Rascal and White Lies.
Festival organiser, Simon Mawby has said, “We are so excited with our first announcement and are welcoming some of the biggest names we’ve ever had to our stages. The best part is this is just the beginning, with another headliner and hundreds more acts to come. It will truly be the best value Y Not ever.”
With more diversity than in previous years, Dizzee Rascal will bring an urban flavour to the Derbyshire festival. Many hotly tipped up and comers such as Catfish & The Bottlemen and Night Engine will also be playing sets at the festival.
Of course, one of the biggest attractions to Y Not when it comes to new talent is their Allotment Stage. Y Not is currently taking submissions from young and independent artists and a lucky few will be given the opportunity to shine at the nationally renowned festival, in front of a beautiful audience.
Y Not festival will take place between 1st-3rd August 2014.
