The independent promoters of the 6,000-capacity Love To Be one-day festival in Harrogate have announced a programme of enhancements across the event site.

Produced by Grace & Tailor, the 5 September event at The Stray is to undergo what its promoters describe as a complete overhaul. Among the changes will be a larger main stage area able to accommodate 3,000 people, upgraded sound and production, a new chill-out zone, a redesigned VIP area with garden and pamper room, and an expanded food village offering.

Love To Be’s founders Tony Walker and Marc Dennis, aka Trimtone, said the event will feature an upgraded SFX set up featuring increased use of Ecojets, G-flames and confetti blasts. A new D&B Audiotechnik line array sound system will also be installed, along with a Music Factory Stage with an RCF digital line array sound system. All stages will benefit from a newly designed LED screen and lighting set up.

The event’s lineup includes Trimtone, Claptone, Paul Woolford, Sam Divine, Julie McKnight, David Penn, and Mousse T.
