REWIND NORTH will see headliners SQUEEZE close the festival on the Sunday, their first time performing at Rewind North. The band were super keen to come back to play for their fans having been unable to perform last year. They will be blasting out their top-ten chart hits singles ‘Cool for Cats,’ ‘Up the Junction,’ ‘Labelled with Love’ and more!

REWIND SOUTH Sunday headliners are THE JACKSONS. Consisting of original members, Jermaine, Tito, Jackie and Marlon they’ll be performing all of their mega-hits made famous with their brother Michael. Songs such as ‘ABC,’ ‘I Want You Back,’ ‘I’ll Be There,’ ‘Rockin’ Robin,’ and many more!

At all three REWIND 2024 festivals, the main stage show will be hosted by Jenny Powell (Greatest Hits Radio) on Saturdays and by The Doctor (Dr. & The Medics) on the Sundays. And the latest addition to Rewind, is Studio 54 Live,kicking it off on the main stage every Saturday at each of the festivals. Studio 54 Live is the spectacular all singing, all dancing celebration of everything Disco, Funk and Groove. You’ll be thrilled by pitch perfect harmony, high energy, slick choreography and the selection of disco classics!

Plus, for your continued enjoyment The Pink Flamingo Club will once again be in the Big Top, an 80’s and beyond themed nightclub, with the Edwin Starr Band (Rewind Scotland and North on the Friday and on the Riverside Stage at Rewind South on the Friday) headline DJs Jenny Powell (all Rewind Festivals on the Saturday), The Doctor (all Rewind Festivals on the Sunday) spinning all your favourite tunes to keep the party atmosphere going well into the night!

All REWIND 2024 Sunday nights will conclude with a fantastic firework display – what better way to end the weekend than with the skies being lit up with a stunning display.

And there’s more!!! Rewind Festival weekend is not just about who is performing on the main stage, but an event including other exciting entertainment such as the Silent Disco, funfair rides, kid-zone with entertainment for the little Rewinders, shops & stalls for jewellery, t-shirts, food & drink. And in Rewind Festival style you can get ‘married’ in the Inflatable Church! Yes, the big church of rubbery love is back once again rockin’ the retro vibes.

And for those wanting to make a whole weekend of it there’s the general camping area - the perfect place to pitch your tent along with Glamping opportunities available. Or for those not wanting a night under canvas there are Campervan or caravan pitches. And with shower and toilet facilities available within the campsite everything is only ever a short walk away.

Rewind are delighted that Greatest Hits Radio are once again Official Radio Partner. Andy Ashton, Director of Content at Greatest Hits Radio Network added: “We’re delighted that Greatest Hits Radio will once again be the Official Partner at all three UK Rewind festivals this summer. Last year was such a huge success with a trio of incredible live events generating brilliant must-listen content for the station - and I’m sure that 2024 will be no different. I’m looking forward to seeing Greatest Hits Radio’s very own Jenny Powell on the Rewind stage and being able to share the action with all our listeners. The good times really do sound like this….!”
