UK Rapper Dizzee Rascal will make his Gisborne debut as one of the headline acts at the 2022 Rhythm and Vines festival in December.

The event celebrates its 20th anniversary this year - but it won't be the only one chalking up a significant milestone.

Dizzee Rascal will also be celebrating 20 years since his debut album release Boy In Da Corner, which catapulted him into one of the most acclaimed and successful British rappers of all time.

Also announced as headliner in the final round of acts is Sir Dave Dobbyn, who will head to the Waiohika Estate for the sundown slot on New Year's Eve. 

Among the other artists added are K Motionz, Set Mo, Ekko & Sidetrack and Shockone.

The festival also revealed New Zealand artists No Cigar, Muroki, Kaylee Bell and drum and bass act Witters will be part of the 2022 lineup.

Previously announced acts include UK drum and bass DJ Andy C, legends Chase & Status, and electronic producer duo Camelphat.

The three-day event will take place at Gisborne's Waiohika Estate from December 29.
