Warrington’s Neighbourhood Weekender has, for a couple of years now, been one of the most hotly-anticipated weekends in the diary for fans of heavyweight, best-mate-on-your-shoulders indie. True to form, the 2022 line-up is topped by Courteeners and Kasabian, with the likes of Blossoms, Tom Grennan, Manic Street Preachers, DMA’s and The Lathums also playing in Warrington’s Victoria Park this May.

One band that everyone will be clamouring to watch is Wet Leg, who have, in what feels like no time at all, taken the indie pop world by storm. Becky Hill, whose clocked up quite literally billions of Spotify listens will be even more packed, while smaller artists like Pip Blom will bring something a little more underground to the table. I mean field.

For the full line-up, head to Neighbourhood’s website via the ‘Book now’ button below.
