Bonobo has been confirmed to headine the Friday night at this years festival, joining him on the Friday is Ghostpoet.

Leeds born Simon Green (aka Bonobo) is due to release his fifth album later this year and will headline that evening bringing his electronic wizardry to the cutting–edge music and arts festival. Ghostpoet, who was a highlight of last year's sellout festival, returns and will also play the Friday.

An Interactive light and sound installation is promised to delight the eyes and ears with a host of hand crafted structures and installations throughout the site. The spoken word and film tent, Into The Woods will run in conjunction with Sheffield Docfest and Cine Yorkshire.
