The Magic Loungeabout which is a 24 hour electronica picnic which takes place in the gardens of Newburgh Priory in North Yorkshire on Saturday 30th August has announced the line-up for the event.

The line-up will be headlined by electronica pioneer Gary Numan, with Ladytron, Morcheeba playing at sunset, Nouvelle Vague, The Egg, Swedish singer Lykke Li, and Pacific with an after show party under the stars will be held in the ruined West Wing of the Priory, until 3am with DJs to be announced soon.

Promoter Simon Adamson said, "The Magic Loungeabout promises to be a 'grown-up' festival experience with luxury champagne bars and fabulous local food. We’ve signed a fantastic line-up of acts from across the world, from the 'Godfather' of synthpop, Gary Numan, to the masters of melodic electronica, Morcheeba. The Magic Loungeabout will be the perfect opportunity to lounge in the sunshine with a cocktail and the very best in chilled 'folktronica' before enjoying a more upbeat electronica vibe for the night time performances."

Bookings can be made online by clicking here. Admission is £78 and children under nine go free.

Overnight camping is available in the gardens of Newburgh Priory at no extra cost with a boutique camping package available which includes a choice of breakfast and newspaper delivery service.
