Organiser James Daly, of Jaly Concerts, said: “We were blown away by the success of last year’s festival. Both events on the Saturday and Sunday sold out and it was great to see everyone enjoying themselves after lockdown.
“To bring so many iconic acts and big names to Southport was amazing but 2022 we’re going even bigger. With the 2021 festival being such a big hit and a really positive response from the 2022 announcement, the 2022 event is looking to be another great success.
“ It’s a really diverse line up across the weekend so there’s something for everyone, whether you want to attend just one of the days or the full weekend. It’s going to be incredible and we’re really excited about i t!”
