Merseyside's newest music festival will return next year, featuring a major headliner.

The Music Weekender at Salt and Tar in Bootle staged its first edition earlier this year featuring brilliant artists such as Red Rum Club. The event also could be named Best New Festival and Best Small Festival categories at this year’s UK Festival Awards, with the winners set to be revealed next week.

Now, world-renowned music legend Tom Jones is set to headline the Music Weekender as it returns for a second year. His appearance will follow his Ages & Stages UK and Australia tour, which kicks off in December.
