This year’s event, organised in partnership with promoter Regular Music, will include gigs at Kelvingrove Bandstand in Glasgow and Ross Bandstand in Edinburgh.

It runs from August 6 to 8 and August 13 to 15 in Glasgow and from August 26 to 28 in Edinburgh.

The Glasgow line-up includes King Creosote, Roddy Frame, Glasvegas, Joan Armatrading, Ben Folds and yMusic and Echo & The Bunnymen.

The inaugural Edinburgh shows, meanwhile, include James, The Flaming Lips and The Waterboys.

Both events will feature a Magners Village with cider garden and street food.

C&C marketing director Paul Condron said the events would give people a chance to “enjoy great music and Magners with mates”.
