90s Fest Sheffield 2024: Everything we know as general release tickets on sale for Don Valley Bowl music event

90s Fest 2024 is returning to Sheffield for another all-day outdoor summer festival - and it is set to have the biggest line-up than ever before.

Organisers of the event released the line-up on Tuesday, February 27, and thousands of fans are buzzing with excitement. One artist announced ahead of Tuesday evening was multi-award winning music group Vengaboys, creators of 90s hits We Like to Party and Boom, Boom, Boom, Boom!!. 

The 90s themed music festival first launched five years ago, and was previously held at Magna Sheffield, but for the second year running it will be held just a stone’s throw away from Meadowhall Shopping Centre. Previous headliners have included Example, Ace of Base, Baby D, and 2 Unlimited.

This event does not offer camping, but this year it will host over 50 artists across six arenas for a full day and night of dance, trance and 90s classics with "jaw dropping" visuals, sound and production.

After the release of the line-up last night, organisers said: "THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR YOUR SUPPORT 90S RAVERS!! This is by far the biggest reaction we’ve ever had on any 90's Fest!! We can’t wait to put on the best show ever for you this summer!!

"This is going to go crazier than anything we’ve ever done! We can’t stress enough how quickly this next set of tickets will sell out based on this response!!!

"If you want to rave in the valley with us, and our biggest line-up EVER, make sure you don’t miss out THIS FRIDAY!!!"

When and where is 90s Fest 2024?

Unlike last year’s August event, this year’s event will take place one month earlier on Saturday, July 13 at Don Valley Bowl - and will hopefully bring sunshine with it, rather than the rain seen over the previous two years.

The event at the outdoor venue on Coleridge Road, Sheffield, will take place from midday until around 11pm, and host some of the best 90s artists of the decade.

How can I get a ticket for 90s Fest 2024?

Organisers of the event have said over 70 per cent of the tickets have already been sold, and the general release tickets have now gone on sale today - Friday March 1. 

Tickets were first released at 7am today to those that have signed up to 'priority access' for free on the website. All the remaining tickets are now on sale to the general public.

The standard ticket is priced at £49.50, the general release queue-jump is priced at £54.50, and the VIP tickets, which will give ticket holders exclusive access to a VIP area, are priced at £59.50.

Organisers "strongly advise" that tickets are only purchased via their website or Skiddle.com. It is strictly an 18+ only event.

What is the line-up for this year’s 90s Fest 2024?

Organisers have promised the biggest line-up than ever seen before, and the announcement saw thousands of social media users thrilled. 

Vegaboys was previously announced as one of the headlining artists to join the event on July 13 this year, but just some of the artists joining the 'We’re Going to Ibiza' Dutch Eurodance music group include:

• Boy George
• Aqua
• Basshunter
• Alice Deejay
• Chicane
• Roger Sanchez
• Darren Styles
• D:Ream
• Heather Small
• The Blackout Crew
• Flip & Fill
• So Solid Crew
• Baby D

One Facebook user said: "Omg amazing line up!!!,” another said: “Tickets booked can’t wait,” and a third wrote: “giiiittttt up there are some right people here again this year." 

What is different from previous 90s Fest events?

This year, organisers have "working overtime" to create an event bigger than ever before. This starts with more stages and a much bigger line-up than in previous years to take festival-goers "on a journey through dance music history".

Ravers can also enjoy a range of street food vendors and bars to keep energised, and get in full festival spirit with more fairground rides than previous years.
