Party at the Palace line-up revealed with one of 'biggest ever headliners' to perform

Party at the Palace have announced one of their "biggest ever headliners" as part of this year's line-up.

Manic Street Preachers will top the bill on the Saturday, 8 August, at Linlithgow Palace, with tickets likely to be in high demand. The Snuts will also take to the stage along with local talent Luke La Volpe and Mark Sharp and the Bicycle Thieves will also take to the stage. Singer-songwriter Becky Hill and Dancing in the Moonlight favourites Toploader have also been announced. Completing the bill will be Stephanie Cheape and Luna The Professor.

OMD (Orchestral Manoeuvres in the Dark) will headline the Sunday (9 August). Also on the line-up for the second day will be Hot Dub Time Machine, The Brand New Heavies, Peat & Diesel, Space, Be Charlotte, Johnny Mac & The Faithful and Pork Pie.

The event, which is running for the seventh year, will take place at Linlithgow Palace this summer. Across the weekend there will also be a street food area, market, kids entertainment, funfair and silent disco.

Event director John Richardson said: "We were over the moon to have been awarded Best Scottish Outdoor Event last year, beating some more famous names but it adds a little extra pressure to deliver the same level again this year.

"Both days are a little bit different - Saturday sees one of our biggest ever headliners take to the main stage; Manic Street Preachers and there is a strong local supporting cast with The Snuts, Luke La Volpe and Mark Sharp and The Bicycle Thieves.

"As always, Sunday is pretty much an all-day party. Toe-tapping and head nodding to start with Brand New Heavies and Peat and Diesel, building up to a full foot-stomping, hands in the air finale with Hot Dub Time Machine and the legendary OMD."
