The Futureheads lead the latest acts announced for the 11th Wakestock which takes place from Friday 2nd until Sunday 4th July 2010, at Abersoch, North Wales.

The Futureheads
The latest acts to be confirmed are The Futureheads, The King Blues, Frankie And The Heartstrings, and Bodyrox featuring Luciana.

They join a line-up with includes Pete Tong, Fedde Le Grand, Audio Bullys, The Ting Tings, Maximo Park, Eric Prydz, Chase & Status, N-Dubz, Tinie Tempah, Mr Hudson, Plan B, Wiley, Sub Focus, McLean, Band Of Skulls, Los Campesinos, Skream, Scratch Perverts, Norman Jay, Ou Est Le Swimming Pool, Roll Deep, Toddla T, Zinc ft Dynamite MC, SBTRKT, Jakwob, with more acts due to be announced next week.

The festival has also announced it will have a Quiet Camping area for the first time this year with a strict quiet policy that comes into effect at 11pm each evening. Set next to the sea in 10 acre field, it benefits from being out of the main run of festival and football traffic and yet still close to the car park, with a view overlooking Cardigan Bay. The festival site will be just over a 5 minute walk and the beach only 2 minutes away.

Wakestock offers festival goers free-to-watch wakeboarding by day and music by night. Right next to the beach, as well as featuring a competition for the wakeboard title, there are live bands and DJ's for two nights.

A weekend without camping is priced at £95, and with camping is priced at £120. A single night ticket will be available nearer to the event. A car park ticket is priced at £5, and a campervan ticket is priced at £50.

The site overlooks Cardigan Bay and across to Snowdonia and has facilities to entertain over 10,000 people each night. There are plans for a seriously imposing new wakeboard rail for the marina in 2010.
