Now a fixture in Manchester’s summer music calendar, Den Fest has unveiled its lineup ahead of its return to the Great Northern Warehouse this August.

Running from Fri 23 Aug – Sun 25 Aug, Lion’s Den will again host the entirely free festival’s main stage, with a stellar lineup of local and national up-and-coming musical talents set to perform over the three days.

Topping this year’s bill will be Manchester’s own shoegaze favourites, By Wednesday, raucous Scottish four-piece Ecko, and Madame Claude, with their unique groove-infused reggae.

Elsewhere, there’ll be sets from the likes of Between the Lines, Dakota Avenue, The Juice, Rolling Thunder and more, as well as DJ slots for XS Manchester’s Hywel Evans, Radio X’s Adam Brown and Capital’s Nige Clucas.

Once the main stage draws to a close, the party will keep going with Lion’s Den also hosting official afterparties each day.

As always, the festival will also be raising money for local Manchester charity Forever Manchester, which supports community activity across Greater Manchester.

No need to book tickets in advance, just turn up and enjoy. You can see the full festival lineup here.
