Ocean Colour Scene to headline Ben & Jerry's in London & Manchester

Ocean Colour Scene have been announced as the other headliner for Ben & Jerry's Sundae, the ice cream themed weekend of music and entertainment taking place at Clapham Common, London, and for the first time Heaton Park, Manchester. Ben & Jerry's Sundae will take place on Saturday 23rd and Sunday 24th July 2011.

The headliners for Sunday in Manchester, or Saturday in London have been announced as Ocean Colour Scene with Ash, and Fun Lovin' Criminals also confirmed for that day.

The other day sees Maximo Park headline, with Gary Numan, Duke & The King, Little Comets, and Sound Of Rum also confirmed.

Ben & Jerry's is also launching 'Be Herd!', a competition giving unsigned music acts the opportunity to win a performance slot at the festivals and a super cool £1000. Acts will be able to submit their entries via the Ben & Jerry's website (www.benjerry.co.uk/sundae), with the two winning acts being chosen to play at either the London or Manchester festival!

Tickets for either day at both locations are on sale priced at £17, children aged 5 and under can attend the event FREE. All children 16 and under must be accompanied by an attending adult. Tickets for the other day at each site will go on sale once the acts are announced. To buy tickets in Manchester, click here or to buy tickets for London, click here.

Visitors to the festival can expect social activism, including fab Fairtrade activities, fun-fairground style attractions and even fresians! Additionally, as usual, the festival will be Climate Neutral, with a ticket donation given to charity.

This year flavour fans will be able to sample the entire range of Ben & Jerry's Fairtrade flavours including the new Coconutterly Fair.
