Maidenhead's 'biggest' family-friendly music festival has revealed the first part of their line-up, with organisers prompting locals to 'set the date'.

Filled with 'hours of high-class entertainment that festival-goers will love', organisers are gearing up for the event which will be taking place on Saturday, July 8, 2023.

The celebration of live music, entertainment and family attractions will run through the day and into the night, for its fifth anniversary, with some well-known faces set to entertain the town.

Known for chart-topping hits such as 'Fill My Little World', 'Love It When You Call', and 'Never Be Lonely', The Feeling will be taking the stage as a headline act.

Meanwhile, Shaun Williamson, aka Eastenders Barry Evans, will be making his festival debut as his Barrioke tour goes on the main stage.

Barrioke has been taking the UK by storm, as he brings people up on stage and the crowd sings along with a giant karaoke screen.

Other acts that have been announced include Daft, Elite Elton, Third Lung, The Boxteles, and DJ oneF.

Fi.Fest will also include a dedicated Kidzone which will be packed with entertainment, crafts, free shows, a giant sandpit, fairground rides and more.

Baxter the T-Rex will be making an appearance throughout the day to entertain children.

Known for being a festival foodie haven, and to keep family energy levels high, Fi.Fest has a food village with stall holders, both local and national, serving up food and drink.

Organisers are confident it will be 'the best yet', with more surprises still to come.
