EXIT Festival

In today’s festival headlines, the London-based Playground Festival has had to cancel its Saturday night doings because of low ticket sales, though it’ll still go on as advertised on 7 Jun with a revised line-up starring Squarepusher, Leftfield, Digitalism, Booka Shade, Kavinsky and James Zabiela at the Brixton Academy.

Tickets to the void Saturday all-nighter will be redeemable on Friday, and at a series of new separate dates featuring the likes of Unkle’s James Lavelle, The Orb, Pantha Du Prince and Luke Vibert, details of which will be released soon over at this link.

So that isn’t great news, but still, let’s move on to brighter things with the following non-cancelled festival events…
