Over 20 acts added to the lineup, along with the announcement of a brand new outdoor stage ‘CYCO VISION’, for the very first time at the UK’s leading psychedelic music and arts festival.

The UK’s hottest psychedelic music and arts festival, Manchester Psych Fest has today announced the second wave of acts for the huge one-day event, as it lands again in Manchester on Saturday 31st August 2024.

Off the back of a huge first lineup reveal that included Baxter DuryThe Horrors, Temples and loads more, Manchester Psych Fest adds more exciting names to the bill, such as the live behemoth that is Pigs x7, Psych Fest graduates Goat Girl, Seattle rockers La Luz, dreamy Paris-based trio Oracle Sisters and even Super Furry Animals spin-off Das Koolies.

On top of that, there’s North London favourites Girl Ray, a first-ever Manchester show from Chicano Batman, Parquet Courts’ very own A. Savage, the enigmatic and brilliantly named Lambrini Girls, post-punks Thus Love, jazzy experimental rockers O., Swedish synth-driven duo Les Big Byrd and loads more.

Festival organisers are also thrilled to announce for the very first time an outdoor stage at MPF 2024, in the form of ‘CYCO VISION’. The cutting-edge stage will take over Manchester’s Projects Skate Park for live music, DJs, and food and drink stalls all beneath the famous Mancunian Way. ‘CYCO VISION’ goes alongside all the traditional MPF venues and represents a huge leap forward for the multi-venue festival.

With many more acts and festival activities to be revealed in the run-up to the festival, Manchester Psych Fest 2024 will bring over 60 of the finest live acts to Albert Hall, O2 Ritz, Projects Skatepark, Manchester Metropolitan University Students’ Union, Gorilla, Canvas, YES and Deaf Institute for an unstoppable day of live music, video installations, DJs, workshops, arts, films, talks, food and drink on Saturday 31st August 2024.
