Already confirmed as joint Friday headliners are Supergrass and The Damned. More acts will be named over the coming weeks as Wizard organisers pull together a diverse and prestigious line-up of performers for the North East festival. All genres of music are programmed for Wizard, from rock and roll to rockabilly to reggae and pop. Plus the best in new up and coming Scottish and UK acts too.

Last year's line-up included headliners The Undertones and Hayseed Dixie along with Sandi Thom, Proud Mary, The Bluetones, Eddie & The Hotrods, Stiltskin, The Cuban Brothers, Nigel Clark, Bombskare, Old Blind Dogs, Union Avenue, The X-Certs, The Macdonald Brothers, and many more.
