The line-up is, six bands from Scarborough: Fuzz Gun Sniper, Superjets, We Heart Katamari, Mum Locked in Castle, Property of Dave and Puritan; The Banter from Whitby plus Vibrant Rain from Hull, Fire Escape from Knaresborough and Black Jak from Barnsley.
The Battle of the Sands attracted entries from all over Yorkshire and Coastival organiser Wendy Clews was delighted with the response.
"Having heard their music I know that the Battle on November 30 will be a fantastic event and a Sunday not to be missed for any music fans in this area and beyond," she said.
"Doors will open at 1.30pm and the bands will begin at 2pm, running through to around 10pm.
