‘Europe’s biggest bass music & soundsystem culture festival’
Outlook is set to take Croatia by storm this year on the 1st – 4th September with the nail-biting introduction of TWO brand new arenas! Set against a backdrop of the stunning region of Istria, Croatia in a breathtaking abandoned fort, the Outlook site looks like something from a lost world. Boasting the most unique festival site in Croatia, if not Europe. Located on a peninsular surrounded by crystal clear ocean views, Outlook combines sun soaked beach parties by day and all night raving up at the fort when the sun sets!
After much anticipation, the Outlook team are proud to announce the opening of a deeply beautiful and historical moat surrounding Fort Punta Christo, which is set to transport ravers into a mysterious world of past and future combined; one of chest-rattling bass lines and booming beats! They have been working religiously towards this long-awaited arena, to bring you a truly unique experience. Armed with a huge capacity this is set to be an intense, bass saturated spectacle!
Even more exciting will be the grand opening of the Harbour Stage, where Outlook will be showcasing a majority of the headliners and purveyors of bass music culture. Set on the edge of the peninsula, the Harbour stage delivers a panoramic and breath-taking view of Croatia’s wooded hills and the sea, where you can also enjoy the majestic views of the city of Pula in the distance. This small and delightful bay is also conveniently situated a stone’s throw away from the buzzing madness of the much anticipated boat parties. Really utilizing the natural beauty of Pula – this is going to be a truly timeless and unforgettable experience.
The line up this Summer is crazy! With leading artists spanning across its featured genres including Dubstep, Hip Hop, Electronica and Drum and Bass, Outlook comes in heavy with the hitters. Expect to see the likes of Skream and Benga, Jakes, Nymfo, Barrington Levy, N-Type, Hatcha, Doctor P, EL B and True Tiger just to name a few!

Festival // Glade 20110
Posted In Festivals
The massive Glade Electronic Music Festival is back this June (10, 11 & 12th) with a quality line up, atmosphere and just announcing its new location to host one of the biggest out door raves of the Summer!
Glade can confirm the new site for 2011 event will be Houghton Hall in Norfolk. Last week the trustees of Mansion House, Biggleswade decided they did not want the event to take place on their site, despite contracts being signed off. Luckily Lord Cholmondeley who owns the estate at Houghton Hall and the surrounding estate has welcomed Glade and this is where the event will take place in 2011 and for the foreseeable future.
Glade organiser Ans had this to say about the situation:
Last week I got back to work having taken some time off to get married the weekend before, to find that the proverbial had hit the fan. We lost our site last week.
The trustees at the Mansion House decided that they didnt want the event after all, despite contracts signed and deposits paid. The new Glade team decided not to tell me so that it wouldnt ruin my big day and what they have done, amazingly, is manage to miraculously find another venue.
The new site, whilst being a bit further away from London, is by far superior. It is set in beautiful, privately owned 5,000 acre Estate which set in beautiful parkland laid out in the 1720s. It is also on sand, meaning excellent drainage, so we wont be having a repeat of the floods of 2009, regardless of the weather.

UK’S BIGGEST STUDENT FESTIVAL BEACH BREAK LIVE EARLY BIRD TICKETS ONSALE JANUARY 18th
16th – 20th June
Pembrey Country Park, South Wales
Following a ruddy spectacular sell out 2010 event, the UK’s biggest student festival Beach Break Live is back. On Tuesday 18th Jan, they will be releasing 500 Early Bird tickets into the wild for a mere £84!
Last year saw thousands of students flock to the stunning shores of Pembrey Country Park in South Wales for four sandy days and starry nights of cutting edge music, sun basking and memory making.
Now entering its 5th year, Beach Break will play host to a whopping 20,000 students and promises to be “the year of the spectacular”. For the first time, the festival will be held over a weekend which will allow more graduates to unite old clans and relive their student days in true Beach Break fashion!
Previous BBL acts have included the likes of grime don Dizzee Rascal, ethereal pop starlet Ellie Goulding, afro-beat preppy boys Vampire Weekend, prince of pop Calvin Harris and a club sapping DJ line up that makes Fabric look thread bare. The acts for 2011 look set to raise the (beach) bar even higher to deliver the best BBL party ever! Watch this space.
The killer line up is not the only jewel in BBL’s sandy crown. Boasting the most beautiful festival site in the UK, the BBL experience comes complete with 4 miles of pristine silky white sand, a dry ski slope (which they cover in snow, of course!), horse riding, a toboggan run and loads more!
Set against the back drop of this stunning sea view location, you will also find all manner of beachside merry making. From parkour to volleyball and vintage fairground rides to surfing lessons – what more could you ask for?
Last year, Early Bird tickets sold out in record time causing the Beach Break server to crash. With last years sun drenched success fresh in their minds and the latest snap of arctic weather, it’s a safe bet that these birdies will be migrating at a record speed, so get yours early to avoid disappointment!
A limited number of Early Bird tickets can be purchased from the Beach Break Live website on 18th Jan from 12.00pm for just £84 (non student Early Birds £104) and will then be on sale at the full price of £99 for students and £119 for non-students.

Having sold out for the past three years to rave reviews, September 2011 will see 8,000 bass lovers flock to Punta Christo’s sun soaked shores for four days of day time beach parties, boat parties and all night raving.
