The Wide Awake festival in London will feature Kneecap and Cmat as headliners, promising an exciting start to the festival season
London: Wide Awake is back for its sixth year, and it’s become a must-attend event to kick off the festival season. It’s got a knack for mixing up a lineup of both fresh faces and well-known artists.
This year, the spotlight is on Ireland, with Kneecap and Cmat headlining at Brockwell Park on May 23. Kneecap, the lively rap trio from West Belfast, is known for their electrifying performances that really get the crowd going.
Cmat, on the other hand, brings a twist of Irish country-pop to the stage. Ciara Mary-Alice Thompson, the voice behind Cmat, is set to deliver a show filled with emotional highs and catchy tunes.
And that’s just the beginning! The festival will also feature artists like Nadine Shah, Warmduscher, and many more. Plus, there are some exciting new acts like Getdown Services and Mermaid Chunky joining the mix.
With even more artists yet to be announced, it’s a good idea to grab your tickets soon at https://wideawakelondon.co.uk/.
