Thirteen tribute acts covering some of the biggest names in rock, pop and reggae will perform at this year’s Poole Harbour Festival at Baiter Park from 31 July to 2 August. Organisers have booked more than 50 live acts across three stages, with the tribute programme spread over all three days.

On Friday 31 July, the tribute stage will feature acts performing the music of Coldplay, Linkin Park, Guns N’ Roses and Foo Fighters. Saturday’s tributes include Adele, Fleetwood Mac, Bon Jovi, R.E.M and Stereophonics. The festival closes on Sunday with tributes to Pink, Queen, Oasis and Bob Marley. Headline slots across the weekend belong to Kaiser Chiefs, The Fratellis, Heather Small, Republica and Scouting For Girls, plus DJ sets from Judge Jules, Dave Pearce, Brandon Block and a Groove Armada DJ set.

Adult day tickets are priced from £34 to £60 depending on the day, and weekend tickets cost £115 to £120 per adult. Family packages and child tickets are also available. The site is dog‑friendly, though all dogs must be kept on leads. Free shuttle buses between Bournemouth, Poole and the festival site are provided for camping ticket holders, and a children’s area with rides and activities will run alongside the food and drink stalls.

Full details and tickets are listed on the Poole Harbour Festival website.
