Rag’N’Bone Man, famous for his hit single ‘Human’, will headline Henley Festival on the floating stage on the opening night.
In 2017 Rory Graham, as he is known off stage, won the BRIT’s ‘British Breakthrough Act’ and received the BRIT’s ‘Critics’ Choice Award’ in the same year.
Successful Irish boyband Westlife will be on stage on July 6. They have had an incredible 14 number one singles across their career.
The group rose to fame with their debut international self-titled studio album 'Westlife' (1999).
Boney M, featuring lead single Liz Mitchell, will close out the festival on the Sunday.
A spokeswoman for the festival said: “We are as passionate about making a difference, as we are creating the best ingredients for our festival year on year – as a team – striving to merge great music, food, comedy and art into unique experiences that create unforgettable memories for our guests, sponsors and partners.
“Last year, to coincide with our 40th anniversary, we launched RISE, the initiative to inspire and support the next generation of talented performers and technicians hoping to work in the creative arts industry.
“RISE provides paid opportunities for young up-and-coming musicians, comedians and visual artists.
“We also seek to support the young backstage staff of the future by offering paid work experience with leading lighting and sound companies, and in marketing and PR.

“Supporting young local emerging talent is something we’re all proud to be a part of because our community helps define us and helps shape what we do with the festival every year.
“We believe that anyone who comes into contact with our festival is important, be it a member of our team, a performing artist, a guest, or someone that benefits from the support of our RISE programme.
“We never lose touch with the reason why we set the festival up in the first place – to give others, the support and opportunity to feel special too.”
Henley Festival has a formal black tie dress code with casual attire not being permitted.
The car park will open from 4pm each day with festival gates opening at 5pm.
Wristbands will be given out at the festival gates upon the presentation of a valid ticket.
