Description
Following a sensational sold-out launch last year, that saw Foals and Hot Chip perform, BY THE SEA returns for 2016 on Friday 30 September - Sunday 2 October. Margate's By The Sea is shaping up to be one of the most exciting festivals that 2016 has to offer. Joining the likes of Wolf Alice, Super Furry Animals, Bat For Lashes and Wild Beasts at the iconic Dreamland theme park in Margate this Autumn will be none other than the legendary Jarvis Cocker. The Pulp frontman and quintessentially British icon will be donning his straw boater and DJing at the dodgems this year in a rare and exclusive appearance.
Also announced: Alexis Taylor, Slow Club, Emmy The Great, Serafina Steer and Barbarossa join the By The Sea line up for a series of very special, intimate acoustic sets in Margate Museum.
Elsewhere in Margate's Old Town, Eagulls, Kagoule, Gang, Our Girl, Happy Meal LTD, Dreamweaver, Fuoco, Ray Gun and Girl Ray will be taking over Olby's Soul Cafe on Sunday 2nd October from 1.30pm - midnight for a special By The Sea fringe showcase in association with Art's Cool. Entry will be free with weekend wristbands and day tickets are available via Dice.fm.
Taking place over Friday 30th September - Sunday 2nd October, By the Sea is the only UK festival that combines big name artists and the hottest rising bands amidst a unique British setting: the iconic Dreamland Margate amusement park.
