This year's Garden Party is set to play host to eight new outdoor shows in a free, fun family weekender in Norwich.

2. Kisstory

When: June 18 and June 19, 2pm-10.30pm

Kisstory in Chapelfield Gardens will feature the "very best old skool and anthems" played by some of the country's top DJs.

There is capacity for 1,500 people and city folk can expect to be left feeling nostalgic with plenty of classic dance, R&B and hip hop tunes.
