The organisers of Field day have announced that the festival will have an extra stage this year.
Organisers have arranged an unlikely partnership with Home Fires, who are best known for hosting folk bands.
Home Fires is normally a festival in its own right but this summer they have taken a year off from hosting their own festival and have decided to set up a stage in Hackney’s Victoria Park.
With the festival being more commonly known for hosting leftfield Indie bands and up and coming Electro outfits, the news may come as surprise to those who already have tickets for the event.
Artists billed to play the new stage include Alasdair Roberts, Efterklang, Emma Pollock and King Creosote.
Tickets for the event, which takes place on August 9th, are available now through Gigwise here.
Alternatively, you can call our ticket hotline on 0871 230 1098 for more information.
