Glastonbury Festival have confirmed the full five day line-up for the Bourbon Street Jazz 'n' Blues Stage at next month's Festival.

The venue, which returns for a second year to the Festival site and promises "an endless array of drinks, an atmosphere to die for and more talent than you can shake a stick at you'd have to be down-right daft not to get involved. Forget everything you think you know about jazz 'n' blues... this is the real thing".

The stage can be found by leaving the Meeting Point and heading towards West Holt Stage then taking the first right towards Pyramid Stage and Bourbon Street is right on the corner (the same position that the Jazz Lounge used to be in) and features headliners Connie Lush, The Orbitsuns, Clare Teal, and Dave Kelly & Maggie Bell.

Modelled on an original Bourbon Street Bar, Bourbon Street Jazz 'n' Blues features over twenty different bourbons - as well as ice-cold beers, freshly ground coffee, champagne and a huge selection of signature cocktails.
