Kool & The Gang will bring a mood of celebration and dancefloor classics to the festival field, with performances from Sophie Ellis-Bextor, and a special guest appearance from Billy Ocean – the best-selling Black British male artist of all time.

Other acts include scene-leading DJs from through the decades, pop-rock hits from Anastacia, and R&B performer Lemar.

The Cambridge Club has established itself as one of the fastest growing festivals in the UK, according to organisers.

This year, the festival will see an expansion of its camping facilities – from pre-pitched and glamping, to a bring-your-tent and more space for campervans.

The new and enlarged orchard – the centrepiece of the site – will house three stages: Discovery Den, Imagination Station and Auditorium of Intrigue.

The Discovery Den will be a dance music hub between the trees, with leading DJs spinning from day into night.

The Imagination Station – the festival’s expanded family entertainment and children’s activities area – will see CBBC legends Dick & Dom take the stage as well as more for children and families to enjoy.

The Auditorium of Intrigue will host a hilarious line-up of comedy stars and thought-provoking discussion panels, with acts including Irish comedian Ed Byrne.

There will also be Bongo’s Bingo and a whole host of entertainment and fun for all the family across the weekend.
