Skamouth kicks off in the V-Arena, building from DJ warm-ups into live sets from Amy, Queen of Camden and Island Collective, before the night’s centrepiece: a special set from 2-Tone legend Neville Staple, followed by 2Tone Mafia live and Boot Boy Radio carrying things through to close.
Out on the Skamouth Patio, the DJs keep the daytime ticking over from 1pm, with a live busking set from Mister H at 4.30pm.

Saturday is Scooter Show day.
Registration on the Skamouth Patio opens at 10am, judging runs from 11am, and the rideout leaves the Patio at 11.45am before returning for dispersal at 12.15pm — with the Celebrity Scooter Show Winners presented in the V-Arena at 4.30pm.
The Outdoor Stage keeps DJs going through the day either side of Tippa Irie’s Meet & Greet with Olas Boss and a live busking set from Donna Hinds at midday, The Alert play live in the V-Lounge at 2pm, and the V-Arena runs a huge evening bill of live bands — Section 8, The Gangsters, Buster Shuffle and Mafia & Fluxy with Miss Megoo — either side of headline sets from Lloyd Parks, Alpheus and the Skalites.
