Festival director Robin Seamer commented on the returning event:

"Dials is all about showcasing great new music, providing a platform for both national touring acts as well as local artists, giving a great day out for music fans, whilst supporting the charity Solent Mind. Mental Health has been discussed far more openly over the last few years and the Dials team think it's important that we do what we can to help raise awareness and funds for the valuable work the charity does."
