"I'm so excited to perform at CarFest, the UK's largest family fundraising festival! I love that it brings everyone together for an amazing cause - it's all about music, having fun, and giving back," said Rita Ora.

"There's something magical about performing live particularly at a festival with families and charity at its heart. I'm bringing my A-game to the Main Stage and together we're going to make this summer unforgettable!"

Rita Ora’s career has been nothing short of extraordinary, with multiple hit singles, including “Your Song”, “Anywhere”, and “Let You Love Me”, she has secured her place as one of the world’s biggest pop stars. She’s earned numerous accolades, including an MTV Europe Music Award for Best Worldwide Act, two BRIT Award nominations, and recognition as one of the most influential women in the UK music scene.
