One of the surprise hits of 2015, Public Service Broadcasting return to Ramsbottom three years after their last appearance. Since then, their second album – The Race For Space – has been met with universal acclaim and adoration, and they’ve established themselves as firm festival favourites at the likes of Bluedot.

As well as space-themed, sample-heavy hits from their most recent record, we will hopefully be treated to a few brand new tracks.
