SWN FESTIVAL CARDIFF REVEALS FULL LINE UP
SWN Festival in Cardiff has announced its full line up with timings.
Prepare for over 150 bands in venues across Cardiff over the evenings of Thursday 21 October, Friday 22 October and through the afternoon and evening of Saturday 23 October, finishing with a massive Silent Disco closing party that night.
If you’re down at Chapter Arts Centre there’s two stages to move between to keep you entertained, or at the other side of town it’s a short walk from Buffalo to Cardiff Arts Institute, so you could keep in one area, or, like some, you might jump on your bike or in a cab to zip about from one side to the other.
For a few shows you don’t need a wristband and instead you buy a ticket like you would a normal gig – that’s SWANS, BRYN FON and PAUL HEATON, plus the special Under 18s welsh language event DAN OED and the U18s DJ event with Aled from Kids IN Glass Houses vs Sean from The Blackout. At the Closing Party Silent Disco your wristband gets you in, but there’s also some tickets on sale for those who don’t have a wristband. One heads up – SWANS are playing nice and late on the Saturday night, so we’ve a special SWANS bundle for those who want to go to the wristbanded shows and then go on to SWANS afterwards.
Here’s who is playing where and when. Entry to all shows (unless indicated otherwise) is covered by a one day or 3-day SWN Festival 2010 Stroller Wristband. A wristband then gets you free priority entry to the shows (subject to capacity).
