The headline acts NEW ORDER, BASEMENT JAXX, KEANE and KASABIAN will perform live at the newest, multi-stage event to celebrate the very best in contemporary and alternative music.
The legendary NEW ORDER will kick off Wireless 2005 in spectacular style on FRIDAY 24th JUNE followed by BASEMENT JAXX who headline the ultimate Saturday night party on the 25th JUNE. Then two of the UK's most talked about new bands KEANE and KASABIAN take to the main stage on WEDNESDAY 29th and THURSDAY 30th JUNE respectively.
