The eclectic line-up includes award-winning speakers, performers, DJs, bands and spoken word poets.
Lianne la Havas and Rae Morris will lead the musical line-up, and there will also be performances from Mike Skinner, 2Bears and Molotov Jukebox.
Green Party leader Natalie Bennett will be speaking at the event, along with physicist Roger Penrose and director Fiona Shaw.
If you’re looking for something a little different, there’s plenty on offer and on 25 May, the Story Time debate, in association with HuffPost UK, will take place.
The panellists, including Sunday Times investigative journalist Heidi Blake, founder of the Reuters Journalism Institute John Lloyd and former editor of The World This Week Hilary Lawson, will discuss the truth in the news, and whether we should demand a framework of objectivity.

The Running The World Differently debate, also in association with HuffPost UK, will see speakers including Labour politician Margaret Hodge debate how things would differ if women were in power.
There will also be plenty of opportunities to let off some steam, and for 2015, the festival is introducing a whole new Riverside site, which will play host to a spa, circus, vintage rides and live music events.
The 2015 festival includes over 650 events, with 270 acts and 200 speakers.
