Organisers have confirmed that the full 2020 line-up for the Bath Festival Finale Weekend will now perform at the rescheduled event, running from Saturday 29 May – Sunday 30 May 2021.

The two-day event will be headlined by recently reunited pop veterans McFly, and British reggae outfit UB40 featuring Ali Campbell and Astro.

The family-friendly event will take place across the May bank holiday weekend, promising a vibrant blend of live music, children’s entertainment, top quality street food and bars.

Saturday 29 May 2021 sees chart-toppers McFly headline, having reformed late last year following a career spanning five studio albums. The band also teamed up with two Busted members, releasing McBusted in 2014.

McFly’s hits include No.1 singles 5 Colours In Her Hair, Star Girl, and All About You – of which they recently released a newly recorded version in aid of the NHS.

British reggae and pop legends UB40 featuring Ali Campbell and Astro headline Sunday 30 May 2021, bringing with them hits such as Red Red Wine and I Got You Babe.
