Bringing together incredible tribute acts, street food, bars, camping, family entertainment and loads of music lovers, Jukebox Festival is set to deliver two unforgettable days packed with anthems, nostalgia and massive singalong moments from start to finish.
Created by two experienced event teams with more than 20 years of experience delivering everything from tribute festivals to major national live events, Jukebox Festival has been built with one simple goal — creating a proper summer festival experience right here in the North East. No overpriced flights, no camping disasters in a muddy field three counties away, just two days of huge live music, amazing atmosphere and memories made with your mates, family and fellow music lovers.
Across the weekend, festivalgoers can expect a huge line-up of some of the UK’s best tribute acts performing the biggest songs from legendary artists across multiple generations. From Britpop classics and indie anthems to rock favourites, pop throwbacks and crowd-pleasing singalongs, Jukebox Festival is all about celebrating the music everybody knows and loves.
