This year's FREE, ticketless, music festival will have over 70 venues taking part and thousands of music lovers expected in the city. Last year saw over 150,000 music fans in Sheffield across three days.
Sarah Nulty, Festival Director said, "This is only the second announcement we have made but already the line up is looking pretty amazing. We still have loads more to come, last year we had over 600 artists playing across the festival so it just shows the level of diversity at Tramlines. There really is something for everyone."
"The key thing though is that the festival is free. No tickets, just turn up and see your favourite artists."
