Notes

Full-day festival celebrating 1950s and 1960s rock and roll, headlined by numerous American acts with a number of British groups as secondary performers. Filmed by director Peter Clifton an released in 1973 as The London Rock And Roll Show (only the artists listed #1-8 appeared in the film).

Bill Haley was a late addition to the roster and as such is not listed on some posters for the concert.The Platters, The Drifters and The Coasters were to have performed, but were unable to due to attend.
