Vintage rockers Slade have been announced as the headline act at Shropshire music festival the Hole in the Wall.

The concert, which will be at Hopton Court, Hopton Wafers, on Saturday, July 18, also features Treacle, Achtung Baby, Leo Altarelli and Telford FM presenter Paul “Shuttsie” Shuttleworth.

Paul Snook and the Buzz Studio are also going to set up in the campsite over the weekend with music provided by young musicians.

There will be performances on the Friday before the gig from 6pm till 11pm and on the Saturday from noon to 5pm.

The idea is to provide good experience for youngsters to perform before a live audience.

Festival-goers can camp on site for the entire HITW weekend from any time on Friday after noon.

Departure time for campers is 5pm on July 19. One camping voucher (£15) will provide a pitch area for two smaller tents or one family tent (for four to six people) or one camper van/caravan and can be bought online along with tickets for the gig.

There will be some washing and toilet facilities available.
