Colours Festival, De La Warr Pavilion, Bexhill, 24th June 2023
While many bigger events still struggle to veer away from predominantly male line-ups, Colours Festival sets out ‘to celebrate and elevate female talent across a whole day of live music’. And the list of artists performing is impressive, with the ethereal sounds of singer-songwriter Weyes Blood taking the headline slot.
Also on the main stage, Mercury nominees Porridge Radio and The Big Moon make appearances, alongside Katy J Pearson fresh from international dates supporting Yard Act and shows at SXSW, and respected musician and composer Emily Barker.
The De La Warr Pavilion is fast expanding its musical profile with some great new events this year to compliment the high profile names showcased throughout the year. It’s a stunning setting for a day out on the coast, and the Music’s Not Dead stage will showcase some favourite local acts in the shape of Hot Wax, CIEL and Bellza, with DJ sets from Brighton’s award winning record shop Resident.
The weather’s looking good for a day on the beachside lawns, so why not join the inaugural Colours Festival by grabbing remaining tickets here.
