In addition to the new announcement, day splits have also been confirmed.

Radar Festival is fully booked and we can let you in on a little secret: we have confirmed our first 2024 headliner, and are already working on the other two. More news on all that soon… We are in the finishing straight now, and cannot wait until Radar Festival 2023. Tickets are selling fast and hotels are booking up, so act now to avoid disappointment!”
