Organisers behind this year’s Margate Summer Series have also revealed that electronic artists Leftfield and Orbital will perform at the vintage fairground later this year.

The event will see pioneering duo Leftfield and Kent-based music group Orbital, from Otford in Sevenoaks, co-headline alongside support acts Luke Vibert, Richard Fearless and Paranoid London.

Margate Summer Series founder and programmer Rob Waller said: “It’s thrilling to announce a further mix of artists joining the series. These household names have had such a positive impact on the UK music industry, shaping their genres.

“We’re endeavouring to give our audiences unique shows and to have Leftfield and Orbital co-headlining will be mind-blowing, even more special with Orbital being local to Kent. We can’t wait to announce even more artists for this summer.”

James Arthur will perform on Sunday, August 25 and Leftfield and Orbital will perform on Saturday, September 14.
