The Magic Numbers have been announced as the first confirmed headliners for this year's Summer Sundae Festival. They'll be joined on the bill by the likes of Echo And The Bunnymen, The Pipettes, Duke Special, The Rumble Strips, Gruff Rhys and CUD. This year's event takes place from 10-12 Aug at De Montfort Hall in Leicester. Early bird tickets costing £75 are still available until Friday.
Organisers say of the festival, now in its sixth year: "We've come a long way in six years and we intend to keep developing Summer Sundae Weekender to give the bands and audience even more of what they want. Members of the public and critics alike have praised the laid back, friendly atmosphere that we have managed to create with an eclectic programme of artists."
