2013 Festival Dates Announced!

What's up, dudes? Hope you're all well. We've been enjoying our winter hibernation glued to blogs, The NME, Zane Lowe and the Hype Machine chart, making sure we're well clued up on the hottest new bands so Underground 2013 can be 'totes amaze' or whatever the hell you kids are saying these days.

ANYWAY..... this year's festival will take place on 28th/29th September. That's all we have to say right now. Just like, put it in your diaries and stuff.

HOW FESTIVAL ENTRY WILL WORK. READ!

Right then. Let's keep this really simple.

Doors for the festival are at 1pm, each day. We have 650 wristbands for general admission each day, and once they're gone, they're gone.

So if you want one, you'll need to make sure you get here in time to pick one up when we start dishing them out at 1pm. If you're on the guaranteed entry list, don't panic, you'll get in whenever you arrive, but the general admission wristbands will be given out on a first come, first served basis EACH DAY (so if you want to come both days, you'll have to queue up both days. sorry).

This is the most sensible and fair way of doing things we can come up with, and worked well last year.

Look forward to seeing you all bright and early Saturday morning, and you enjoying the fantastic weekend we've been working so long and hard to put on for you!

If you have any questions, please EMAIL US, yo!

Welcome To Marathon win BOTB Final

Last night saw our annual battle of the bands final take place at the festival venue, Gloucester Guildhall.

Massive congratulations to our winners Welcome To Marathon, who will open the festival tomorrow on the DIY Stage. Have a listen to them on Facebook here.

Runners up Guy Challenger, Emily Jones and The Feddens will all play the BBC Introducing Stage.

Saturday Club Night Announced!

Those of you hitting up the festival on Saturday, make sure you stick around after Bastille, as things get a little naughty - we're teaming up with our favourite Cheltenham DJs Somebody Gonna Get Pregnant to bring you a 90s/00s hip-hop and rnb club night!

The club night will run in the hall from 11pm until late.

Remember, there's nothing wrong with a little bump and grind.
