Line-up and new location revealed for Cheshire Fest
CHESHIRE Fest has announced its 2024 line-up - and a brand new location for the festival. The popular event - previously held at the Lambing Shed in Knutsford - will take place on the grounds of Capesthorne Hall in Macclesfield.
The boutique festival returns on August 31 and the weekend line-up includes acid jazz and funk group The Brand New Heavies, iconic dance vocalist Jocelyn Brown and house music heavyweights The Shapeshifters.
From chart-topping acts through to emerging talent and reality stars turned DJs, such as Mark Wright, Cheshire Fest 2024 will boast an eclectic line-up of musical acts across multiple stages nestled in the lush green Northern countryside. Tickets are on sale now with early bird prices starting from £30.
Jon Fitz, Creative Director behind Cheshire Fest, said: “Cheshire Fest isn’t just a festival, it’s a moment in the calendar to celebrate culture. We’re bringing some of dance music’s finest acts and the region’s best food and beverages to our first year in the grounds of Capesthorne Hall.
“Everyone will be able to make their own day of the festival - there is something for everyone and it will be a party for the books!”
One of the freshest and most current musical duos in the house music scene Lovely Laura and Ben Santiago, will also appear on the bill, as well as The House & Garage Orchestra who will bring the sounds of UKG and House with a classical twist to the regal Cheshire estate. Herd & Fitz, the duo behind early 00s record ‘I Just Can’t Get Enough’ will also bring the energy to what’s set to be an unforgettable day.
Elsewhere on the line-up, festival goers can expect the electronic music maestro from Manchester, Sweet Female Attitude, good vibes hunter Aline Rocha, The Murphy Brothers, Electric Emma, JD and Tom Da Lips. If guests want to up the party vibes, then they can experience world-class DJ sets at the House & Vocal with a neverbefore-seen 360 Dance Arena.
The festival will also offer more intimate and acoustic atmospheres at the Live Lounge area which will be sponsored by Stockport’s latest hot-spot, Bask. The Live Lounge will provide a tranquil oasis amidst the festival. Here, both signed and unsigned artists will showcase their talent in a relaxed environment, creating unique moments.
New for 2024 will be a Wellness Village, where guests can indulge in rejuvenating experiences designed to nourish the mind, body, and soul. From a 0% bar offering refreshing beverages to juice detox sessions, there’s something for everyone seeking a holistic festival experience.
