Tickets for a brand new event on the UK festival calendar are on sale now.
Hi:Fi will be split across two venues in England, one in the North East and one yet to be announced in the south.
The line up is the first of it's kind to mix rock and alternative bands and dance artists and DJs on the same stages.
Hi:Fi North will take place for one day and night on Saturday 27th May at the picturesque Matfen Estate near Newcastle.
This already looks like an event not to be missed as the first acts to be announced are:
Ian Brown
Maximo Park
Editors
Audio bullys
Paul Oakenfold
Sasha & John Digweed
Erick Morillo
2Many DJs
Hi:Fi is the brainchild of the Angel Music Group who are responsible for Global Gathering which last year sold out with record breaking numbers of over 40,000 people, this event looks set to be just as popular.
As well as bands and DJs, there will be a quality bill of non-musical entertainment including chill out areas and exclusive VIP arenas. Bands from the local area will also be able to enter a competition to perform live in front of the huge crowds.
Tickets are on sale now and are broken into two categories: General Admission (£52.50+ booking fee) and VIP (£75+ booking fee). VIP tickets will entitle guest access to a private arena where they can rub shoulders with the event performers and enjoy a private bar and lounge with its own DJs and acts.
