Latitude Festival Sells Out Tickets Not Soul

• 5th Jun 2008

Latitude Festival organisers Festival Republic have announced that all weekend and Saturday Day tickets have sold out. All 25,000 tickets have been sold with only limited Friday and Sunday day tickets remaining. Despite many festivals struggling with poor ticket sales in an over-crowded festival summer, Latitude has proved itself the premier mid-size, family-friendly festival in the UK with another outstanding music, comedy and arts line-up.

More wonderful music acts have been announced for the festival to be held at Henham Park in Southwold, Suffolk over the weekend of July 17 – 20. The beguiling harp playing Joanna Newsom will preview new material on the Sunday while Liverpool's finest psychedelic indie rockers, The Coral will be performing an acoustic set. They will be joined by the most exciting new acts including Wild Beasts , Johnny Flynn and Lykke Li
