Richard Ashcroft, Snow Patrol, Sophie Ellis-Bexter, 'Soldier's Eyes' star Jack Savoretti and The Charlatans have been added to the line-up for Hardwick Festival 2024.

The three-day event - which has already confirmed UK pop queen Becky Hill as its opening headliner - will take place between Friday, August 16 and Sunday, August 18 across two stages, set in the grounds of Hardwick Hall in County Durham. 

Friday, August 16 will see Becky Hill joined by very special guests Soul II Soul, indie group The Sherlocks, and Sam Fender tribute band 'Scam Fender'. 

Saturday, August 17 goes up a gear with a full day of live music which will see Snow Patrol take centre stage.

The band's globally-famous Chasing Cars track and other rousing anthems will be joined on the day with a flurry of big-name acts including Blossoms, ex-Kasabian frontman Tom Meighan and singer-songwriter Callum Beattie.

Sunday, August 18 will see Hardwick Festival's tenth anniversary celebrations come to a close in style and is set to be a real treat for indie fans.

Richard Ashcroft – the voice of one of Britain's most successful albums of all time, Urban Hymns, – will make a welcome return to the North East and will share the stage with the likes of The Charlatans, Jamie Webster, Euro 96 Three Lions legends Lightning Seeds and pop disco princess, Sophie Ellis-Bexter. 

Live music fans can now snap up their weekend tickets for next year's event and the public will also be offered a flexible payment plan option.

For those that do want to celebrate in style and luxury, a limited number of glamping tickets will also be available for purchase.

More than 30,000 people attended last August's Hardwick Festival weekender where crowds took in memorable performances from the likes of Noel Gallagher's High Flying Birds, Mel C and The Kooks. 

The event is already gaining national recognition for hosting major acts, having previously welcomed the likes of The Stereophonics, Madness and Rag 'N' Bone Man to the main stage. 

Ahead of next year's tenth edition, organisers have pledged to make it the go-to festival for all in the North of England, appealing to the whole family with something on offer for everyone. 

As well as acts from around the globe, the event will feature dance arenas, children's areas within the woods, vintage fairground attractions and a wide range of local food traders.
