The winner of the online 4 Music unsigned competition will also be kicking the whole afternoon off.

In addition to movers and shakers of the music scene heading down to the West Coast, the T4 presenters will be on hand to host summer 2007’s biggest party. June Sarpong, Steve Jones and Miquita Oliver will guide the 30,000 strong crowd and viewers at home through a day of live music in the sunshine.
