Following a hugely successful inaugural event last summer, Northern Grip Festival is back in 2017 to deliver a thrilling combination of mountain biking and music in Lancashire.

This year the festival moves over to a new location with it's organisers saying they are "taking all the great stuff from last year’s festival, making it bigger, better and bolder."

Taking place in Stubbylee Park at Lee Quarry, the Victorian - esque area has weekend camping and backs onto Rossendale Valleys where group rides and bike demos will take place, and of course there is plenty of great music too.

The Northern Grip 2017 line up features the genius Mr Wilson's Second Liners, who never fail to deliver with their brass band rave covers and military chic and Manchester based indie rock outfit Satyr Play, along with top selectors Gareth Brooks and the Funkademia crew.

Northern Grip takes place between Friday 7th - Sunday 9th July, find Northern Grip tickets below
