Firstly, our heartfelt apologies to all you Glader’s for the delay in advising you on our plans for this years Glade festival; we hope that you can appreciate that it was imperative that we provide you with the most up to date position rather than put out something hastily!
10 years ago, before boutique was even a word in the festival lexicon, a small group of friends decided to gather all the party tribes under one guise and throw the UKs first truly collaborative electronic festival. But as you know the festival is not centered soley on a gathering of specialists in their genre of music, Glade became
a journey where the emphasis on creativity was welcomed to fuse together all the elements to give an experience second to none in the UK.
Glade continues to challenge the staus quo of the now over saturated festival scene and we are very keen to ensure that it always brings something just that little bit different – it is with this in mind that the powers that be at Glade have decided that we will not be releasing dates for the annual 4-day festival this summer. There will be much needed time spent regrouping and reassessing in preparation to bring you the Glade festival of all festivals in the summer of 2014.
Though this news is somewhat tinged with the sadness of not putting on a full event this year; we feel that any other decision would not have done us or indeed yourselves, our loyal Gladers, justice.
However… we feel it would be a crime to let the summer months pass without celebrating the passing of another winter, not to mention letting you revel in all the smoking hot new music we have accumulated so in true Glade style
there is a stupendous 24 hour event in the pipeline for you guys this summer!
Alongside this we are also teaming up with Project Sound to bring you a Glade LONDON stage every week at the world reknowned Ministry of Sound. This will be an opporunity to showcase a different stage from the festival each week and be a chance to be part of something exciting and new it will bring you an amazing cross-section of the best up and coming electronic music fused with that which you know.
We are all very excited for the next 12 months – we hope you will be too!
Glade.
