A host of big name acts have been announced for a major festival taking place in Yorkshire this summer.
Love To Be…Festival will be returning on Saturday, September 6. Taking place at The Stray in Harrogate.
The festival will once again transform the iconic park into a party hotspot, delivering 11 hours of non-stop music across two epic stages and VIP area. Festival tickets are priced from £55.25 plus booking fee for general admission. Tickets are available via Skiddle.
The event’s capacity has been increased from 4,000 to 6,000.
Taking the main stage by storm will be none other than Armand Van Helden – the legendary New York icon who has been at the forefront of house music for over three decades. Joining him are global hitmakers The Shapeshifters and the incredible Ultra Naté, performing live, alongside a line up of house heroes including Trimtone, Carly Wilford, Tom Wainwright, Stuart Pilling, Keex, and Sinclair.
Stage two is the Music Factory Classics Big Top – a homage to Love To Be’s... iconic Sheffield roots – where 90’s house history meets festival fever. Headlining is Chicago pioneer Marshall Jefferson, the mastermind behind the genre-defining anthem Move Your Body. He will be joined by legendary hitmakers K-Klass, party powerhouse and TV favourite Gok Wan and the sensational Juliet Roberts.
Manning the decks over in the VIP area will be LGBTQ+ legends FunkyLove and Harrogate’s own Funk My Life.
Director and co-founder, Marc Dennis, said: “We are extremely excited to be back in Harrogate this year with another unforgettable Love to be…Festival. We’ve taken everything people loved about last year and dialled it up to deliver an even bigger, better experience.
“At the heart of Love to be… is our unstoppable passion for house music and uniting generations on the dancefloor. This festival is all about capturing the magic of our early days and turning up the volume for both a fresh crowd and our original Love to be… family. With an iconic lineup and the stunning backdrop of The Stray, it’s shaping up to be a truly incredible day – and we can’t wait to party with everyone again.”
