Offset is brought to you by the team behind
TMF Rock Festival. Starting as a small one day event and growing into an
8000-capacity festival, the decision was made to relaunch with a new name,
location and offer even more...a full weekend of great music.
It's set in the lush Essex countryside, the event features over 150 artists
performing on 7 stages. Offset provides a unique festival experience -
with ticket prices kept
low and quality kept high. Weekend tickets are priced at just £45 or £55
with camping included.
Stages will be curated by Last.fm, Experimental Circle Club, Club Artrocker
and east London's Girlcore collective, with bands and DJs hand-picked to
represent the most exciting performances from the UK and beyond.
Renowned London club night Girlcore host the dance tent,with live performances
and DJs from some of the country's most celebrated clubs,including; Durrr,
Trailer Trash, Get Rude, Boombox and Bugged Out! DJs on other stages include
acid house legend Terry Farley and residents from Junkclub, EXP CIRC, The
Sect and many more.
Headline bands will finish in time for people to make the short tube journey
back to London - with the party continuing for campers and those making
it back on the night buses.
LOCATION: The beautiful Hainault Forest at the easterly end of the Central
Line - just 30 minutes from Central London.
