Venues included in the event are The Barrowlands, St Luke’s, The Winged Ox Bar, BAaD, The Backyard with more to be announced.

Speaking about the lineup, the festival founder Chae Houston said: “The TENEMENT TRAIL team have been working hard to create a line-up that will excite fans of both TENEMENT TRAIL and new music. We have a brilliant mix of touring and local talent in there and to see a local band like Fatherson top the bill after they smashed their headline show at the Academy at the weekend is amazing.”

Last year’s event sold-out, with acts such as The Cribs, Yonaka, The Van T’s and more on the bill.

Tickets are on sale now.
