ROCK, blues, soul and more will blast out from Rugby town centre during the Bikefest later this month.

Organisers of this year’s event have announced the acts which will take to the open-air stages in Market Place and Church Street on Sunday May 18.

They are Blues Extra, The Mutineers, The Soul Revival, Bright Black, The Rooters, Rugby Electric Guitar Orchestra, Big Family, Trust Club, The Jellyheads, and White Men Can’t Funk.

The popular town centre event – organised by Rugby First, Rugby Borough Council and local motorcycling groups – is now in its 11th year.




It will feature bike displays, stalls, live music, children’s activities, a funfair, food, cars and arena displays, and will begin with the now-traditional ride-in, with hundreds of bikes entering the town centre in convoy.

Rugby First Business Director Linda Lowne said: “The music at Bikefest is always a big draw and this year I think we have got a great line-up of local bands and talented performers on display. A massive thanks to the creative team who have put the exciting programme together and to all the musicians involved.


“Don’t forget if you want to join the very popular ride-in, you will need to register online.”

The Bikefest will take place between 10.30am and 4pm on Sunday May 18. Visit www.rugbyfirst.org for more information.
