9 reasons why you need to go to Southsea Fest 2014
The seaside + new music? Why the hell not?
It's by the sea: Forget the need for wellies at a festival that happens on a farm in the middle of nowhere, Southsea Fest takes place in the town right next to Portsmouth, so if anything it's more like a seaside break than a festival excursion (plus that's a good excuse to tell yourself if like us you've already done too many festivals this summer).
Festival season may be nearly over, but have no fear because there are still a load of amazing events to look forward to before the summer is out, especially for fans of new music - ladies and gentlemen, have you considered Southsea Fest?
With a lineup that could rival The Great Escape or even SXSW, Southsea Fest is one of the UK's premiere festivals for new music, bringing together a wealth of the strongest emerging acts (and a few legends) for one day of the best music you'll see on the seaside this summer.
Gigwise are heading down, so needless to say we're super-hyped. Here are nine reasons why you should get excited as well:
