BLOC 2012
Our favorite British festival has a new home. Admittedly, it is in the heart of Olympic London, making it an expensive do; however, the location is, in a nutshell, sick. ‘Pleasure Gardens’, is overlooked by a monolithic, Stalin esc, industrial landscape, more like a rave site than a festival one.
A far cry from the arcades and the comforts of Butlins, the new venue promises custom built stages like no other. If we are going the adventurism of the ‘The dome’, an inflated stage equipped with visuals, then we are in for a hell of a weekend.
Curated by those behind the nighttime area of Glasto, this is promising to be big. Oh, and if your worried about the timing, if you get pissed off with the early finish of city festivals, such as Parklife, don’t worry the license is till 6am. Bloc2012 is on 6/7th of July, tickets are on sale now. Peace.
