ONE of the UK’s fastest growing family-friendly festivals, Deva Fest, has announced, not one, but three headliners that will take over the main stage at this year’s festival at Cholmondeley Castle – Will Young, Fleur East and 5ive.
As part of his ‘20 years in music celebration’ year, Will Young will perform at Deva Fest which takes place between 11th and 13th August, for his only North West festival appearance of 2023.
Taking over the main stage as the headline act on Saturday 12th August, Young will perform some of his all-time greatest hits from his fastest-selling debut single “Evergreen” and “Anything Is Possible” to his latest single from his greatest hits album “Why Does It Hurt?”.
With countless tours, two Brit awards and over eight million albums sold worldwide, Young’s performance at Deva Fest promises to ‘set the stage alight’ with a journey through his biggest hits.
The family-friendly festival, which organisers say is going to be the ‘biggest and best one yet’ in 2023, is filling up the line-up with some of the greatest artists in the music world, and tickets are selling fast.
Adding to the mix of top UK pop talent this year, X-Factor finalist Fleur East – best known for hits such as “Sax” and “More and More” – will be joining the Saturday night main stage line up alongside the final headliner to be announced, one of the biggest British boy bands of the late nineties and early 2000s, 5ive.
With number one hits including “Keep on Movin’” and “We Will Rock You”, 5ive will complete the headliner round up for Saturday’s main stage.
The Friday line up plays witness to London based chilled electronic band Morcheeba’s only UK festival this year as well as a returning set for Symphonic Ibiza, and Sunday’s listing boasts Feeder and Starsailor alongside many more artist announcements yet to come for the three-day weekend event.
Phil Marston, Founder of Deva Fest, said: “We couldn’t be more excited with our headliners for this year’s festival, and we’re delighted to be adding Will Young, Fleur East and 5ive to an already stellar lineup for 2023. We said we’ll be bigger and better than ever in 2023, and for these top artists to join the likes of Starsailor, Feeder and Symphonic Ibiza, we’re delivering on our promise.
“Tickets are selling fast, and that’s down to some really big names in music that we’ve secured this year, but also because of the family focus we have. Our wide selection of family-friendly entertainment truly stands us apart, including our free-to-use fairground, live performers, our Deva Laughs comedy tent, which will host some big names yet to be announced, and a range of delicious, hand-picked street food stalls.
“And we haven’t finished yet! We have lots more exciting news still to announce!”
Deva Fest, now in its third year, is hosting the event for the first time at Cholmondeley Castle in Cheshire.
With more than 20,000 festival goers expected to attend in 2023, organisers are anticipating this year’s event to be ‘the biggest and best yet’.
