That’s the serious stuff but the Tramlines audience will certainly be ready to party to Sarah Nulty’s Main Stage headliners The Streets, Royal Blood and Supergrass, plus a host of other bands playing on five stages. There’s also a comedy stage, plus art, performance, craft ales and food stalls. Enjoy!
