Josh T. Pearson, Beth Jeans Houghton and Gilles Peterson added to The Apple Cart line-up

Adam Ant, Josh T. Pearson, Inner City, Beth Jeans Houghton, Gilles Peterson and Scritti Politti are just some of the names added to The Apple Cart Festival bill this morning.

As previously announced, The Line Of Best Fit will be hosting the second stage at this year’s event; bringing some of our much loved acts to a multi-thousand capacity arena – however, we’re keeping our lips firmly sealed about the line-up – for now….

For the uninitiated, The Apple Cart was born last year from the people behind Field Day and Underage festivals, its aim to cement a reputation as a colourful festival of ideas that caters to adults and children alike. Adopting something of a melting pot ethos, The Apple Cart presents London with an entirely fresh, multi-disciplinary take on the festival experience: no other event in the capital has Turner prize winners and world class magicians and burlesque stars sit happily alongside arena-filling comedians and established music legends all on the same bill, on the same day. We’re proud to be a part of it.

The Apple Cart takes place on Sunday 3 June at London’s Victoria Park. For tickets and other info, head over to the official site here.
