The biggest, best and most bonkers stars at Lovebox 2012

This weekend sees one of London's biggest festivals take place in Victoria Park, as Lovebox celebrates its tenth anniversary with one of the strongest line-ups of its history.

Spread across three days and kicking off this Friday (15 June, 2012), this year's Lovebox boasts some of the biggest names in music past and present, with music giants performing alongside some of the coolest new names in the business.

Friday has an electro feel, with the likes of Hot Chip, Magnetic Man, Toddla T and 2 Bears performing, while Saturday has a more soulful sound - with Emeli Sande, Maverick Sabre and Kelis among the performers. Sunday can only be described as the disco legends day, with Grace Jones, Chaka Khan and Chic taking to the stage.
