This amazing festival runs from 9-13 July at Henley Bridge and performers include Jamie Cullum and Matteo Bocelli, the acclaimed Haçienda Classical, comedy from Ivo Graham and Ed Byrne, a spectacular firework display each evening, plus on Sunday early afternoon there's family fun with children’s entertainers, face-painting artists and playful clowns. See the full line up here.

Diana Ross is a radiant icon, the ultimate entertainer who has blazed a trail of glory across the decades. Her unparalleled vocal artistry, genre-defying style, and unstoppable creative force continues to rewrite popular culture.

Thursday evening sees one of our personal favourites, McFly take to the floating stage. It’s been 21 years since McFly first formed, a journey which has taken them from their breakthrough hit ‘Five Colours In Her Hair’ to last year’s full-force rock album ‘Power To Play’.

Rick Astley will be bringing his big band for an upbeat, moving and fun swing set.

On Saturday the acclaimed Haçienda Classical celebrates the finest club classics, performed by a full orchestra.

Sunday early evening sees singer/songwriter Matteo Bocelli shares his sensitive songs and dynamic vocal performances having already performed on some of the world’s biggest stages.

Jamie Cullum then brings his unique blend of jazz, pop, and rock to the stage - most famous for his dynamic stage presence, it’s the perfect way to wrap up your Sunday evening.
