With Glastonbury taking a year off in 2018, the BBC announced last year that a 'replacement' festival would take place to sate the appetite of those hungry for standing in a big field and watching bands.

And although the line-up for 'The Biggest Weekend' isn't exactly comparable to Glasto, it's still pretty impressive.

The festival is set to take place across four countries - one of which is Northern Ireland - on Friday, May 25th and Saturday, May 26th, with Taylor Swift and Ed Sheeran already confirmed for the Welsh leg.

Beck and Manic Street Preachers are confirmed for the Belfast leg, which will be held at the city's Titanic Slipways. All four locations will have footage broadcast on various BBC stations.
