The Editors, The Kooks, BellX1 and Ash have been announced for this year's Indiependence festival. Excitement for a festival season is building steadily, as the first load of acts for Indiependence were announced today. Also on the line-up for the three-day Mitchelstown music festival are The Strypes, Idlewild, Hudson Taylor and The Blizzards as well as King Kong Company, Little Hours and many more. The Cork festival, which will take place from July 31st to August 2nd, is in its eleventh year and has firmly cemented itself as a must-attend on the festival circuit in Ireland, after its biggest year to date last year. We are also very excited to reveal that JOE and Her.ie will be there with bells on with our own Sunday Sessions area, with a stellar lineup to be announced in the coming weeks, so keep an eye out. If this looks like your cup of tea, you better hurry, as three tiers of early bird tickets for INDIE16 have already SOLD OUT, with weekend camping tickets for the festival now on sale at €119. INDIE fans will be happy to see the return of the Beer Hall Stage, Comedy & Spoken Word, the Silent Disco, Festi-Huts and a wide variety of food options over the course of the weekend, with more announcements imminent. INDIE15 sold out in advance so don't hesitate to visit www.indiependencefestival.com to buy tickets or www.facebook.com/INDIEPENDENCEFEST for more information.
