First there were The Libertines - now this year's Wheels and Fins Festival will see a takeover by pioneering drum 'n' bass label Hospitality Records.

The festival, which will be held in Joss Bay, Broadstairs on Saturday, September 8, and Sunday, September 9, will be the seventh edition of the event which sees revellers dance, camp and sunbathe by the sea.

Some 10,000 revellers are expected to turn out for the mix of sports, outdoor activities and music acts over three stages.

Hospitality, who takeover The Bunker dance tent, have been at the heart of the scene since 1996, and will bring a mix of long-time legends, fresh new faces, and key MCs. First up is Brazilian S.P.Y whose stellar releases have bagged him a Drum’n’Bass Arena Award for Best Album, Radio One airplay from Annie Mac and an Essential Mix for Pete Tong.

Also appearing are the Kings Of The Rollers collective whose debut single was Burnt Ends and label mainstay Logistics, set to smash up the dancefloor with a vast catalogue of releases, alongside brother Nu:Tone.

Etherwood joins the bill with his unique production style, as well as MC and rapper Degs, alongside Whiney, Rinse FM’s Uncle Dugs, Inja and Dynamite MC.

Last year newly-established locals The Libertines curated a day of the festival, Sharabang, and a total of more than 80 acts performed over the whole festival.

Other past acts have included Feeder, Example and Friction.

Adult day tickets start from £40, weekend tickets from £75, or a VIP experience costs from £80 for the day or £150 for the weekend.
