The key line-up for this summer’s Create Festival has been announced.

The Bay Rays will headline the Revelation Ashford Stage and Riskee and the Ridicule will support ska legends, The Selecter. The event takes place on Saturday, July 22 in Victoria Park, Ashford.

The Create Main Stage, sponsored by Ashford College, will include local favourites Riskee & The Ridicule, Salvation Jayne, and the Paul Dunton Orchestra.

They will be supported by Ashford College music technology students.

Music and arts venue, Revelation Ashford, has once again programmed in a mix of independen­t music, supporting some of the best bands, singer-songwriter­s, and emerging young folk artists from Kent.

The brand new County Square Community Stage will also showcase a host of talented groups.

The line-up for the legendary Create DJ stage has yet to be revealed, but organisers promise a top line-up.

David Bowie tribute act, David Live will return for a special show at Revelation Ashford the night before Create.

Festival organiser, Chris Dixon, said: “We are delighted with the line-up so far.

“We believe this line-up is a good mix of high quality local bands, a few up and coming artists from further afield who have a genuine interest to play here, as well as providing a platform for some individual­s to play in front of a crowd for the very first time.”
