At the children's arena, there will also be a fun dog show, Punch and Judy and the Litter Arcade, which offers youngsters the chance to enjoy a fun treasure hunt across the clifftop using a Precious Plastic East litter picker before heading off on a fun litter treasure hunt throughout the clifftop area.

Visitors will have the chance to dance the weekend away with a mixture of rock, blues, and 80s sounds at the main stage and acoustic arena.
