Concerts set for High Lodge, Thetford Forest, in June include gigs from big-hitting headliners Rag'n’Bone Man and Keane.

Held in beautiful forest locations across the country, Forest Live is a major live music series managed by Forestry England.

"With everything required for a great night out, our concerts are renowned for their relaxed atmosphere and spectacular forest backdrops," say organisers.
