Sainsburys' bargain deal at SaviFest

• 9th Sep 2011

East Kilbride based charity SAVI, sponsored by Sainsbury's Olympia, is staging the best value one day festival in Glasgow since Live and Loud. SAVIfest, set to be an annual event, will have 12 bands and acts on show, including well known headliners.

This flagship musical event is being showcased from 5pm until midnight on 21 October 2011 on behalf of SAVI (Sexual Assault Victims’ Initiative). The charity was set up for families and child victims, borne out of one family's tragic experience, their continued determination to influence change within the legal system, and to help young victims and families cope with the aftermath of sex attacks.

For only £10.00 fans will see a selection of the best artists from the Scottish music scene – less than £1.00 per act. On offer will be a heady blend of rock, acoustic, soul and pop provided by new and established bands and solo artists from all over Scotland, culminating in a line up set to rock the roof off the Barrowlands' Halls 1 and 2.

A local film crew will also be creating a documentary of the night, and prior to this a short promo film featuring bands and supporting celebrities will also be recorded to promote SAVIFest.

Full programme details will be released over the next few weeks.
