Latitude adds Ida Maria, The Maybes?, and Glasvegas

with Okkervil River, Sebastien Tellier, Midnight Juggernauts, and others

Friday 13th June 2008


Latitude Festival has announced yet more acts heading for Henham Park Estate in Suffolk from Thursday 17th to Sunday 20th July.

The young Norwegian singer Ida Maria will perform on the Obelisk Arena on Saturday. Latitude's Sunrise Arena on Saturday afternoon will play host to Liverpool six-piece The Maybes?.

The Uncut Arena, sees hot Scottish act Glasvegas taking to the stage, and Texan indie rockers Okkervil River play Uncut Arena on the Sunday.

Eurovision comes to Latitude in the form of Sebastien Tellier who joins Saturday's line up on the Uncut Arena, with Detroit's The Satin Peaches also playing there on the same day.

Over at the Sunrise Arena on Friday Dan & Olivia aka The Do, from Paris via Helsinki, will be playing their European pop-folk, and New York American-indie band The Virgins will also be appearing that day.

There's three new additions to the Sunrise Arena bill on the Sunday. First up is Jeremy Warmsley who will be showcasing some of his brand new material out this summer, then there is 22 year old singer songwriter Polly Scattergood, and completing the new announcements are Australian indie psych 3 piece Midnight Juggernauts.

Latitude has an extensive bill of acts headlined by Franz Ferdinand, Sigur Ros, and Interpol and the likes of Julian Cope, Martha wainwright, British Sea Power, Blondie, Death Cab For Cutie, Seasick Steve, Crystal Castles, Elbow, The Breeders, Amadou And Mariam, and M.I.A. For the line-up details as available please click here.

Latitude is much more than a music festival, there's film, comedy, literary events, theatre, poetry, and special collaborations.

Weekend tickets for Latitude were priced at £130 and have all gone, as have Saturday or Sunday day tickets. There are still Friday tickets available priced at £55. To buy a Friday ticket click here.

This year there will be a dedicated family campsite, for families with children under 13 (who can attend for FREE) within the public camping area and also a family campervan area within family camping.
