Danny Rampling is considered to be a founding father of the UK and Ibiza House music scenes and has continued to play evolving styles ever since.

The addition of DJ Graeme Park continues the Manchester theme to this year’s Redcliffe Festival as he rose to prominence at the Hacienda back in the summer of love.

Festival director and farmer at Redcliffe Farm Martin Brown said: “We began by promoting local bands here in the grounds of the Farm Shop, now things have grown and we have a proper festival stage plus the Cattle Shed Theatre and this year we have will have the new silent disco.”

Mr Brown has run the festival since hiring a band to play at his own 50th birthday party in 2016.
