Festival News: 110 Above announce full line up.
The weather is getting warmer, the sun won't set until after 8pm next month, and by then we’ll only be weeks away from festival season. But before we get too far ahead of ourselves, tickets must be secured for the self-proclaimed ‘biggest little festival’ that Leicestershire has ever seen!
110 Above has just announced their full line up and somehow this tiny, beautifully warm and friendly festival has curated yet another incredibly huge line-up, with enormous headliners such as Everything Everything, Sea Girls and PALACE, and an awesome mix of brilliant day-time acts, many of whom have just released new music - give KAWALA’s first full album a listen when you next have a moment, or get in the mood for beers in the farm's sunlit barn by listening to Alfie Templeman’s recent singles.
Bands who’ve toured arenas for years, like The Night Cafe, will join TikTok sensation Casey Lowry, perfectly representing the simultaneous greatness of musical talent and experience at this festival, with the quaint charm and unpretentiousness of its atmosphere.
The Academic, The Sherlocks, Red Rum Club and Spector will perform at 110 Above for the first time, whilst Cassia and JAWS are welcomed back, and there is plenty of young talent too for those looking to discover their new favourite sounds before anyone else!
The bottom line is, it’s never too early to get excited for summer, especially when it involves 110 Above. Tickets sold out last year, so don’t let yourself be the one that misses out this time - they’re sure to fly out!
