However the venue confirmed to disappointed fans today discussions with the band had fallen through and they were no longer on the bill.

Florida-based Limp Bizkit have been nominated for three Grammy Awards and sold 40 million records worldwide, with hits including Nookie, Re-arranged and Break Stuff.

Rhydian Hicks, Margate Summer Series boss said today: “We were in discussions with Limp Bizkit and very close to confirming them for a show in summer 2023.

“However in the end the dates did not quite fit this year unfortunately.

“We are still in discussions with their team and are hoping to bring them to Margate if and when possible.”

Dreamland’s summer series is still set to host a lot of big names, such as Placebo, Queens of the Stone Age, The Streets, Bastille, Primal Scream, Tom Jones and the Human League.

Rag’n’Bone Man, Kool and The Gang, Olly Murs and McFly will also play at the theme park over the summer.
