The Vamps to headline Blackpool's iFest Illuminations eventBritish pop-rock band The Vamps have been confirmed as the headline act for Visit Blackpool’s 2015 Blackpool iFest Friday night switch-on event. The event is set to take place on Friday, September 4 and it will see the resort’s famous lights switched on, marking the start of the season's Illuminations. The special guest Switch-On star and other special guests will be announced in the near future. “We’re absolutely delighted to confirm The Vamps as headliners. They are huge names on the UK music scene and the incredible numbers they generate in terms of interest show what a massive following they bring with them. We will be announcing more names, including special guests and our Switch-On star, soon.” The Vamps, meanwhile, are finishing off their highly anticipated sophomore album and recently told Fabulous magazine that their new sound might surprise fans: "It’s nearly there. The first album was quite acoustic and folk-driven. This one is more synthy, like MGMT. We’re happy with the style and trying something new, but it’s a bit scary to see if everyone likes it."
