From folk singers to urban hip hop artists, Greenbelt is promising a top line-up of music acts for this year’s fast approaching festival.

There are just a few months to go until thousands of people head to Cheltenham for the annual festival, taking place this year under the theme “Saving Paradise”.

The latest line-up features Idlewild’s Roddy Woomble, Denison Witmer, Hope & Social, Jackie Oates, In Case of Fire, Tom & Olly, and Guvna B.

In addition to music, festival organisers have confirmed a fantastic host of speakers to whet the intellectual appetite.

They include scientist and theologian John Polkinghorne and popular sociologist Tony Campolo, as well as praised theologian the former Bishop of Durham, Tom Wright.

Prices for the weekend festival are on special offer until 30 April, with lower rates for concessions and the under-18s.
