The headline act for this year's Bournemouth 7s weekend has been announced.
Chase & Status have been named as the headline artists for this year's 'sporting Glastonbury'.
Organisers of the world’s largest sport and music festival said the multi-platinum selling group will bring an eclectic mix of electronic music and drum and bass to the festival, which takes place over the Queen’s Jubilee Weekend.
Last month, Chase and Status returned to the limelight unveiling their hard-hitting and trailblazing singles “Mixed Emotions”, and "Don't Be Scared" ft. Takura, while announcing their sixth studio album, What Came Before, out Friday June 10.
Bournemouth 7s founder Dodge Woodall said he is thrilled with the headline act. He said: "We are looking forward to seeing 30,000 people at Bournemouth 7s dance and sweat with the unwavering dance floor energy this festival always brings - cultivating another legacy of positive vibes, unforgettable moments and the continued progression of A-list artists and British club culture on the beautiful south coast."
The Bournemouth 7s festival has grown massively in popularity among sport lovers around the country and returns to Chapel Gate, Bournemouth with an incredible line-up of additions including 100 live performers & DJs and an unrivalled electric atmosphere that sets it apart from other UK festivals.
By day, the multi award-wining festival, set on the beautiful South Coast, will serve up some of the best sport of the year, including rugby, netball, hockey, and dodgeball players competing in both elite and social sports tournaments across the picturesque, 65-acre festival site.
