In other UK festival news, the UK’s first LGBTQ+ electronic music and camping festival is set to launch later this year.
London’s Flesh Queer Festival will run from May 28-29 at Springfield Farm in St Albans and welcomes LGBTQ+ individuals, their friends and allies. Rebekah, Object Blue, Chippy Nonstop, Jaguar, SPFDJ, Juliana Huxtable, LSDXOXO and VTSS are among some of the acts confirmed for the festival.
A statement from Flesh Queer Festival says: “The festival addresses long-term issues in festival programming, which is dominated by cis-male straight artists, breaking the cycle and allowing emerging and underrepresented talent to break through on a worldwide platform.”
Riposte London will also be hosting a sober tent where ticketholders can take part in workshops, attend panels and relax in a calm environment.
