Latitude, the region's most popular arts festival, returns to Southwold from July 16-17 for the fourth year, setting up camp in a woodland enclave at Henham Park, offering the best in international and local talent thanks to its wide variety of stages – including literature, theatre, comedy and dance.

Melvin Benn, managing director of Latitude's promoters Festival Republic, said: "Latitude Festival really is a focal point of the summer calendar now, and it's only in its fourth edition.

"The level of success is fantastic and it never fails to please me that people have embraced it as much as they have. Being able to bring together all the different aspects of the music and arts worlds is a fabulous achievement and it's that commitment that sets Latitude apart from the other festivals around.

"This year we are excited to announce the involvement of some truly incredible performers and companies that inspire, innovate and entertain."

In the run up to the festival, hundreds more acts will be joining the three headline acts as well as The Editors, Doves and The Gossip.

Weekend tickets – which include car parking and camping – cost £150 plus booking fees. Day tickets £60 plus booking fee and include car parking only.
