Annie Mac's festival in Malta gets better by the year
GIGWISE
13:16 31st October 2018

Annie Mac's Lost & Found festival, held on the Maltan shore and in a world-beating nightclub complex with a mix of indoor and outdoor stages in the island's interior, have today announced a huge part of its line-up for 2019. 

Held 2 - 5 May and curated by Radio 1’s Annie, the line-up features, in her words: "a huge, diverse line-up to represent the amazing people that come to Lost & Found every year."

Highlights include fast-rising London artist AJ Tracey, who missed his last scheduled appearance at the festival, where he was due to play with 'Question Time' hitmaker and Ivor Novello prize winner Dave in 2016, due to travel problems. AJ's a much bigger artist now than in 2016 and is carefully placed at the top of the poster, and keen to make up for it we suspect.

Mixmag's DJ of the year 2016 Black Madonna will be another highlight having slayed there in 2016. The US born and raised DJ was an utterly transcendent experience and no one seemed to be more into it than Annie Mac who was partying with her behind the decks. Another DJ worth noting is South Korea-born, Berlin-based producer Peggy Gou who has been garnering a lot of heat lately since releasing a 12" on Ninja Tune earlier this year.

Meanwhile, Manc grime rapper Bugzy Malone, who supported Liam Gallagher in Manchester recently, is among the big names to take to the relatively intimate AMP: Lost & Found festival. Annie Mac herself makes an appearance on the decks too.

We look forward to hearing what stage they're each playing on because each offers a different experience. There's rigs set up at castles, by pools, and more; each offers scintillating views. Plus, there's guaranteed glorious sunshine on May Bank Holiday, giving you a headstart on summer.

Tickets are available 9am Friday 2 November. Check here for cheap flight and hotel packages.
