McFly and The Human League have been announced as two of the latest headline acts for a series of gigs to be held next year.

Both acts will be part of the Bedford Summer Sessions which will take place over five days in July, located in the town's Grade II listed Victorian park - Bedford Park.

McFly, who formed in 2003, are best known for their hits Five Colours in Her Hair, All About You and Obviously.

UK and US chart toppers, The Human League, rose to fame with their 1981 synth-pop album Dare and its string of hits including Don't You Want Me.

Other headliners previously announced include Rag'n'Bone Man and Supergrass.

Danny Jones, vocalist and guitarist for McFly, is currently in the jungle as a contestant on ITV's I'm a Celebrity... Get Me Out of Here.

He follows in the footsteps of his bandmate Dougie Poynter, who was crowned "king of the jungle" in 2011.

The Human League will take to the stage on Thursday, 10 July, with McFly drawing Bedfords Summer Sessions to a close on Sunday, 13 July.

Tickets go on sale on Friday, 6 December.
