Outlook has enlisted the likes of Sherelle, Batu and Ghetts for the forthcoming festival. Goldie, Skream, LCY, Calibre, Children of Zeus, Chloé Robinson, DJ Storm, Mala and D Double E have also been announced. Elsewhere, Ben UFO, Pearson Sound and Pangaea will return to the event for the first time in five years with a Hessle Audio stage takeover.

On the sound system tip, Jah Shaka, Channel One, Mungo’s Hi-Fi, Sinai and more will soundtrack the festivities. Outlook will also be offering a programme of workshops, talks, panels and film screenings. Festival-goers will have the option to camp on site.

Ghetts’ third album, Conflict of Interest, ranked fourth on our Albums of the Year 2021 list. In our write-up, we said: “Magnum opus is a lofty term, but Conflict of Interest is undeniably Ghetts’ finest work to date.” See the full list here.
