Tickets are priced at £30 for the weekend and there will also be on site camping available.

Edd Keogh, organiser of the festival said he was delighted to have two such big acts headlining the festival. "In a World Cup year, to have Ian Broudie who is synonymous with the Match of the Day goal of the month theme ('The Life of Riley') and of course 'Three Lions' will be perfect. It will create such a buzz to have them here just weeks before the World Cup."

LeeStock was started in 2006 when a bunch of Lee's friends wanted to put on a tribute gig in the memory of Lee Dunford who had sadly passed away earlier that year. The gig was a success, and has became an annual event ever since.

The festival raises money for charity - The Willow Foundation which is the only charity of its kind providing special days for 16 to 40 year olds.

Keogh, added, "We have spoken to Terrorvision a couple of times as they were always a band we thought would go really well with our festival audience so we're delighted to have got them for 2014. Hopefully we can raise even more much needed funds for such an excellent charity in the Willow Foundation, whilst putting on a great event and remembering Lee"

There are still many more acts to be announced for the event.
