Taylor Swift’s never been, Dave Grohl played when he was in Nirvana and we’re guessing David Guetta isn’t overly familiar with East Anglia.
But this weekend Norwich is hosting some of the biggest artists in the world.
Fifty-thousand people are expected at Earlham Park, in the centre of the city, over the next two days.
Muse, Fall Out Boy and Imagine Dragons are also playing at Europe’s biggest free ticketed festival.
We could see a very different set from Clean Bandit who have been touring their debut album for the past year.
“We’ve got a couple of new surprises,” teased Jack Patterson, fresh from their double Ivor Novello wins on Thursday.
“We’ve just been rehearsing for it all week and we’ve been playing around with new ideas,” added Grace Chatto.

It means Catfish and The Bottlemen move over to the main stage and Lethal Bizzle slots into the In New Music We Trust line-up on Sunday.
George Ezra who admits he’s not been practising with his band for a while, so what can we expect?

George and his band are playing in Oxford on Saturday before hitting the main stage in Norwich on Sunday.
Final touches are being made to the site today.
