Latitude - the new festival with more than just bands - which takes place at Henham Park Estate in Suffolk from Friday 14th to Sunday 16th July 2006 has announced more of the entertainment across the weekend.

Joining the music headliners of Snow Patrol, Antony & The Johnsons, and Mogwai are The Zutons on the Friday, and Mercury Rev and Regina Spektor on the Sunday. Also newly confirmed are Scissors For Lefty, 1990's, and The Pippettes.

The Vox ‘n’ Roll tent is the place for informal readings that will see Toby Litt, Tibor Fischer, Howard Marks and Lydia Lunch as well as forums of guest speakers discussing music, albums, gigs, and the industry at large over the festival weekend.

They'll be a special recital of Shakespeare’s Twelfth Night, performed on the Sunday by a local theatre group. Done in a 1960’s style, this outdoor performance in the historic Henham Park setting will be a unique experience.

Joining the previously confirmed Marcus Brigstocke and Rob Newman in the Comedy Tent is Sean Lock, with many many more still to be added.

And for the younger generations, there's Children’s Art & Theatre to nurture budding rockers, artists, thespians and writers with art and theatre workshops including Shakespeare workshops, as well as face painting, children’s poetry and other fun filled activities.

Tickets are priced at £95 for Weekend tickets, with Day tickets £40 for any day. Weekend tickets prices include car parking and camping. Days include car parking only. Click here to buy.
