Following on from last year’s incredible and sold out (and probably best so far) 10th Anniversary event, the much loved and mighty award-winning Arctangent Festival returns this summer, and can today reveal another host of amazing acts for the event. To kick things off we have two more headliners for the festival. Firstly playing their first ever ATG are Norwegian band Wardruna, who will be bringing their Norse musical interpretations and traditions to the festival as our Wednesday night headliners. With this incredible band now in place, the Wednesday for this year’s Arctangent Festival will be its biggest ever, with more stages open to accomodate, but still no clashes!
