Loop Festival

Loop Festival  2008

When: Saturday 16th August 2008
Where: Victoria Gardens, Brighton (adjacent to Royal Pavilion)
Time: 12.00-22.00

Following the success of last year's inaugural event, Loop returns to Victoria Gardens, central Brighton. The seaside city will once again host a wealth of specially selected top bands and stellar DJs, alongside an abundance of cutting edge digital art and culture.

Last year's line-up was stacked with big-name live acts including headliners The Go! Team, The Aliens and Foals. Thanks to a sell-out crowd, this year's Loop will welcome hot new music acts for 2008 all housed alongside experimental leftfield artists. The entire line-up will be complemented by innovative art with VJs, films and animation.

After the site closes down the party doesn't stop there, as the event morphs into LoopLate which features further live performances and Djs at various late-night venues around the city.

Once again Loop is keen to support new and local talent and will be taking submissions for opportunities to perform at the event. For further information visit www.loopbrighton.com

The event will again be spread across four areas: the Hub and Futures tents in the main arena will play host to the most prominent acts, while Limits will provide an internal space for the more leftfield and experimental artists. Finally, artists known primarily for their electronic work will be displaying their mellower, acoustic side in the intimate Loop Garden.

Tickets are priced at £25 via www.loopbrighton.com  and www.ticketweb.co.uk as well as physical outlets throughout Brighton. Ticket holders will be entitled to discounted admission to all LoopLate venues after the main festival. Visit www.loopbrighton.com for more details.
