ATP heads home: festival back at Camber Sands for Pitchfork face-off

by Mike Diver [Edit this content] ▾ 22 comments 15:11 October 5th, 2007

All Tomorrow's Parties is to return to its original Camber Sands site (Pontin's) in May next year (9-11) for a special ATP vs Pitchfork weekender.

The popular alt-rock-cum-anything-goes festival - Portishead curate this December's Nightmare Before Christmas edition, of course - is already shaping up to be rather special in May, with confirmed acts including:

Los Campesinos!, Dirty Projectors, Fuck Buttons (recently signed to ATP, no less), Sebadoh, Ween, Man Man, Apse, Glass Candy, of Montreal and Pissed Jeans. There are 23 more bands yet to be confirmed... exciting.

All tickets for the event are self-catering, and are available now - click here. For more news and information on ATP - the festivals and their upcoming London shows - click to the official site here.

If you need a link to Pitchfork, clearly you're reading about the wrong music. Weekend two for 2008 will take place from May 16-18; details to follow soon.

awesome

only 33 bands though? thats not many compared to other weekends... unless the reason is that they've got someone uber expensive and can't afford more!

Jamie_Summers | 5 Oct '07, 15:18 | X | Reply

I dunno... that's over 10 bands per day (11, indeed)...

...and there are TWO rooms at Camber, not three. So less room to actually host bands.

ah thats true

there are often multiple sets on too so who knows.

part of me wishes the two weekends were a tiny bit further apart considering my girlfriend is a semi-loser and always stays at home.

there was only 34 bands

at the last ATP at Camber.

save your cash, come to CHINCHILLAFEST the week after!

... be sure to scribble the sixth annual three day CHINCHILLAFEST (Brudenell Social Club, Leeeds) into your 2008 diaries for Friday 16th, Saturday 17th and Sunday 18th May.

As a little mouth-whetting teaser, we're currently discussing flights with a select few megagood bands from across the globe to bring home the party on the Friday and Saturday, and you can expect a wide selection of the bestest UK bands we can get our sweaty hands on!

We are also very happy to announce that the longstanding, awsome and prolific PICKLED EGG RECORDS (home to a.P.A.t.T., Fulborn Teversham, Zukanican, The Go! Team, Nalle, Need New Body, etc) are putting their fine name to the Sunday line-up which has been chosen by our first ever guest curators QUACK QUACK (superthanks to Nigel and Moz!).
