ICONIC British dance act Soul II Soul will headline this year's Electric Beach festival at Watergate Bay on August 31.
Ben Hall event director, said: "We are so pleased to have Electric Beach back this year, especially being able to work with Watergate Bay again. We are working on making this event even better than last year with some great new additions."
Soul II Soul are a household name in the UK scene, with their evergreen hits Keep On Moving and Back To Life topping the UK and US charts.
Released in the summer of 1989, Back To Life has sold over a million copies worldwide and featured in the Opening Ceremony for the London 2012 Olympics. One of the founding members Jazzie B, has had international success winning two Grammys and an Ivor Novello award. He has not only been a part of chart topping Soul II Soul, but has remixed and produced songs for James Brown, Nas and Destiny's Child to name a few.
The day's musical entertainment will start at 1pm and continues until the sun goes down at 10pm. The summery atmosphere will be reinforced with an array of live acts and DJs before the evening's headline acts.
Special beach activities and dance-offs are just some of the other elements to Electric Beach, with more surprises to be confirmed. A fully licensed bar will be open from 1pm and the Extreme Academy will be providing delicious festival food throughout the day.
The official Electric Beach After Party was a huge success last year with Newquay's premier nightspot the The Chy and Koola Bar filling to capacity with the events partygoers.
Jazzie B will be playing a DJ set again hosted at The Chy with DJ sets and live performances from many of the other acts on the line-up. Open from 11pm to 4am, the after-party continues the party from the beach to the club.
