Radio 2’s mid-morning front man and national TV treasure Vernon Kay will be red-jetting in and aims to have you raving and misbehaving on the lawns as he plays an epic headline set of the best 90’s dance and party anthems from that incredible era. Vernon is renowned for delivering high-energy sets packed with iconic anthems, current hits, and feel-good party bangers.
