in a week where will constantly be hearing about divisions in society it can be nice to think about things which unify us too! En Masse is a little festival I'm curating next summer – a celebration of contemporary music, packed full of special guests and friends. I hope it's going to be something unique and special, different to a lot of the more corporate operations we are all well used to. it'll take place near Abergavenny in Wales – 12th – 14th June 2020. to read more about the project visit the link in my bio and sign up for tickets and more information! follow @enmassefest too!

The festival website details eco-friendly camping, art installations, sheltered dancefloors, food, and a late licence to allow for “maximal merriment until dawn.”

Capacity is strictly limited to “preserve the intimacy of the dance”, as well as to “bring together a diverse party crowd, with a mutual respect for each other and our surroundings.”
