Sunday May 2nd 2010!
3PM - 3AM
Salford's only new music festival has hosted shows by names like Marina And the Diamonds and The Tings Tings. Founded in 2005, more than 40 new, live acts have performed annually since on the May Bank Holiday weekend, across six, seldom-used venues along Chapel Street.
Last
year saw a stage hosted by Radio One's new music... lover, Huw
Stephens, with festival appearances by bands spanning the sonic
spectrum from Talibam to Mayming, the Lexie Mountain Boys to Whisky
Cats, Hooker to Solar Fire Trio.
The twelve-hour-aural-orgy is
moving west this year taking in the Kings Arms, Islington Mill, the
Salvation Army's music hall, St Philips Church, The Crescent and the Pint Pot's
two-tiered venue on the University of Salford Campus. Its bigger than
before, with better sound systems and music keeps getting better.
Acts
set to appear will be announced soon, and the festival is in the
process of applying for a late licence too - making for a
Chapel-Street-wide party, from 3pm to 3am.
Tickets for this years event are now on sale and are priced £15! You can purchase tickets online at Quay Tickets or get them in person from Islington Mill or Piccadilly Records!
