The event will take place in Kulturfabrik, the slaughterhouse-turned cultural centre. Organisers are promising an even bigger line-up of international artists this year and will keep guests updated on the Rootstown Facebook page.

In addition to live music, there will also be workshops, beat-making sessions, art exhibitions and dance performances.
