In a previous statement to the News, festival director Jamie Isaacs said: "We are really excited about the line-up this year. We have tried to invite artists that cover as many musical genres as possible.

"We’ve got big hitters and also some hidden gems that are definitely going to be ‘I saw them at my local festival’ moments in the future."

Last year the festival was hit with difficult weather conditions, but the directors and the Jurassic Fields team are excited about bringing the show back for 2024.

Jamie added: “We have listened to the feedback about last year’s event and we believe we have made improvements so that everyone’s experience will be the best yet. We have more bars and a range of traders. We cannot wait to welcome you to the field this year.”
