Icebreaker Festival Summer 2022: 13 pictures from the Southsea music event

ALBERT Road and beyond was transformed into a live music mecca with more than 80 acts performing on 11 stages for the first ever summer Icebreaker Festival at the weekend.

Hundreds of music fans headed to Southsea and packed out sweltering venues including The Wedgewood Rooms, The Wine Vaults, Back To Belgrave and The Deco.

The event aims to highlight the best in up-and-coming and unsigned acts.

Hotly-tipped indie band Hallan headlined at The Wedge, but there was something for most music-lovers, from the hip-hop of Stratz and Joe Burger, to roots from Waif and Stray, vocal powerhouses Mary Red and Hannah Reem, and much more.

The festival will return for its regular winter edition in its traditional spot at the end of January.
