JLS

JLS first captured the public's attention in 2008 as contestants on the fifth series of the British talent show "The X Factor." Their powerful performances and undeniable chemistry propelled them to the finals, where they finished as the runners-up. Despite not winning the competition, JLS signed a record deal with Epic Records and embarked on a journey that would solidify their status as one of the UK's most beloved boybands.

JLS's debut single, "Beat Again," released in 2009, skyrocketed to the top of the UK Singles Chart, marking the beginning of their chart-topping success. Subsequent hits like "Everybody in Love," "The Club Is Alive," and "She Makes Me Wanna" further solidified their presence in the music scene. The band's albums, including "JLS" and "Outta This World," achieved platinum status, showcasing their ability to consistently deliver chart-topping, soulful pop.

Tinchy Stryder

One of the most popular London rappers of his generation, Tinchy Stryder was an early star of the grime scene, alongside Dizzee Rascal. He launched his solo career in 2006 with his first album, Star in the Hood.

This was followed by Catch 22, which made it to number two in the UK album chart and spawned two number one singles: Number 1 featuring N-Dubz and Never Leave You featuring Amelle Berrabah of the Sugababes.

Accessibility information, about our concert events:

We want our Wild Live concerts to be enjoyable and accessible for everyone.

Given the style of our concerts, the audience typically either stands, or sits on picnic blankets. We encourage everyone to bring your own portable seating / small fold-out chairs if required.

The site we use for the event is a green field – it’s a grass surface and doesn’t have any pathways. Mostly, the area is reasonably flat and even, as it’s regularly used for car parking. Nevertheless, please consider the ground conditions, and the possible impact of the changeable British weather, when deciding what facilities or equipment you wish to bring.

The entrance to the concert area is approximately a 25-minute walk from the new main entrance and car parks to the concert field. Guests with a blue badge will be able to park adjacent to the concert field in the stage side car park. Guests with mobility issues who do not have a blue badge are recommended to purchase a Stage Parking pass.

Please note: Blue Badge Parking must be parked no later than 4:00pm. Any arrivals after this time will not be able to access parking.

Permalink

There is an allocated disabled car park for blue badge holders only. This is located next to the concert field, please show your blue badge on arrival. You do NOT need to book stage parking if you hold a disabled blue badge. Please note that this carpark will be held until the show field has emptied for guest safety.

We do offer a dedicated accessible viewing area for blue badge holders only which is close to the stage. This area must be pre-booked as capacity is restricted. Each guest can be accompanied by one carer in this area. Carers must provide the correct ID.

Spaces are limited and must be booked via email on a first come first served basis. To request accessible viewing tickets email [email protected]  or call us on 01302 535057.
