A new multi-venue festival in Brighton has been announced, headlined by Savages, Toy and Swans and set to take place in December.

Known as Drill Festival, the weekend-long event will kick off this winter, operating a one ticket multi-venue system, similar to The Great Escape which takes over the seaside city in May.

Over 100 acts will play the event, taking place between 4-7 December, with the first line-up announcement featuring a wealth of emerging talent: including Courtney Barnett, East India Youth, Samaris, Telegram, The Wytches and many others.

Curated by Wire, the festival will also see a host of special one-off performances, including a collaborative rendition of the group's classic track 'Drill' with headliners Swans, as well as an improvised performance of 'Pink Flag' with a collection of other artists on the bill.

Check out the official poster for Drill Festival below:

Early bird tickets for the event go onsale Friday (19 September), priced at £60 and available exclusively through SeeTickets.
