Summer Jam will take place at Glasgow's iconic Riverside Museum on Saturday and Sunday September 3 and 4 with Candi Station famed for hist You've Got the Love and Young Hearts Run Free heading the line-up. 

Glasgow Times:

Part of the museum's Festival of Wheels programme, Summer Jam will encompass two days of back-to-back soul, disco and funk – kicking off with Saturday's Purple Party Prince Tribute featuring Candi Staton and Studio 54 legend Jellybean Benitez.

The Summer Jam will continue into Sunday with a second stellar line-up, including Norwegian producer and party starter Todd Terje, Dimitri from Paris, and Jazzie B (Soul II Soul).

Event organiser Mark Mackechnie said: "The Riverside Museum is a spectacular backdrop for a party and the perfect site for the first ever Summer Jam.

"Both days will showcase the very best soul, disco and funk music, as well as Glasgow's first ever roller disco and inner city beach."

In addition to the spectacular Summer Jam line-up, revellers will be fully catered for with pop-up food stalls and a full service bar.
