It’s an annual tradition, to look through the line-ups of the summer festivals and to decide on which one to attend. With an abundance of choice, whether it is through the specific line up or the genres the overall festival caters for, it can be a difficult decision.
However, it is one that eventually results in attendance to a festival offering a memorable and long-lasting experience.
But this does not have to be restricted to the summer as there are also some festivals that can appear in the winter where one such event is the Next Big Thing Festival – a great showcase that appears across venues in London earlier in the year (February in 2010). The event is designed the showcase the best in up and coming bands from around the world within some prestigious and well known venues. It is organised by HMV and MAMA Group and has previously staged a range of artist who deserve to have their voices heard.
In 2010, Next Big Thing Festival tickets gave audiences access to artists like Ellie Goulding, Miike Snow, Paloma Faith, Young Guns, Marina and the Diamonds, You Me at Six, Jesca Hoop, Hadouken!, Two Door Cinema Club, Example, Alex Gardner and more. These acts and beyond appeared on stages at the Relentless Garage, The Camden Barfly, Borderline, The Jazz Café, ULU and Heaven and gave some talented musicians the chance to show what they are made of in front of a big crowd. It means that music lovers no longer have to wait a long time before they can see the stars of tomorrow in a live setting; today they can attend the Next Big Thing Festival and relish in some stand-out live performances.
So make sure you are armed with Next Big Thing Festival tickets when bands like these head to the stage at the six London venues taking part. Not only will the shows be memorable and exciting in themselves but you will be able to keep the experience close to the heart for years to come, safe in the knowledge that you were there when some popular musicians were just starting out. Next Big Thing is not just a winter festival; it is an unbeatable chance to see the stars of tomorrow.
