One Day, One City, One Street is the motto for the first Southsea Fest (not to be confused with the Portsmouth & Southsea Music Festival which takes place over three days in October).
The day is Saturday September 13, the city is Portsmouth and the street is Albert Road.
There will be 10 venues and 14 hours of live music from local and national bands, for just £8 a ticket.
The Wedgewood Rooms, Little Johnny Russells, One Eyed Dog, Porters, the Wine Vaults, the Fat Fox, Southsea Liberal Club and Citrus Cafe are all involved.
Little Johnny Russells will feature DJ sets from, among others, Dirty Pretty Things.
The Wedgewood Rooms stage will see SixNationState, Little Fish, The Strange Death of Liberal England and The Unknown Soldiers.
There's a massive line-up of other bands at other venues including Fresh Legs, Little Fish, Little Things, The Unknown Soldiers, Eliza Doolittle, Hold Fast, The Dawn Chorus, The B of the Bang, Joe Black and The Rivers of Sound.
Southsea Fest will also have a metal stage at Southsea Liberal Club, which will feature Outcryfire, Sinusim, Alternative Carpark, Empty Cage, Nervous Endings, White Knuckle Revolution and Insinerate.
The Wine Vaults will host live poetry readings and acoustic music, some of it on the roof garden overlooking Albert Road.
So get on down to Albert Road on Saturday for a whole day of live bands, poets, illustrators and DJs, all in aid of the Ellen MacArthur Trust.
There will be 10 venues and 14 hours of live music from local and national bands, all for just £8 a ticket.
