Wakestock Festival

News - 23rd January - DIZZEE RASCAL CONFIRMED FOR WAKESTOCK FESTIVAL 2012
Wakestock tickets go back on sale today and organisers have confirmed that DIZZEE RASCAL will be making an appearance at this year's festival!

Dizzee is the third act to be announced on a bill that already includes ED SHEERAN and CALVIN HARRIS. Dizzee is a Wakestock favourite after paying us a visit back in 2009 where he made the crowd go wild with a set that included smash hits Bonkers and Dance Wiv Me. Everything that this man touches turns to gold from his is debut album, Boy in da Corner, that won him the 2003 Mercury Prize to follow-up albums Showtime, Maths + English and Tongue n’ Cheek. All have all been critically acclaimed and certified gold, the last going platinum for sales exceeding 300,000.

News - 5th December - CALVIN HARRIS ADDED TO WAKESTOCK 2012 BILL!
The guys down at Wakestock HQ are incredibly chuffed to announce that the legendary DJ CALVIN HARRIS has been added to the bill and will join Ed Sheeran as one of our 2012 headliners. There are still a limited number of earlybird tickets available but make sure you book soon!

CALVIN HARRIS has been something of a Wakestock favourite over the last few years and will return in 2012 with his all new show. After a dramatic rise to the top, this guy is one of the best in the business. He is currently touring with Rihanna off the back of the amazing number one single “We Found Love” and we are so excited to be welcoming him back. With a new album coming in 2012 Calvin is going to rock the Wakestock crowds once again!

News - 28th November - FIRST HEADLINER ANNOUNCED FOR 2012!
Wakestock HQ have announced that WAKESTOCK will return to the stunning site at Penhros, near Abersoch on 6-8 July 2012 and that a limited number of early bird tickets will go on sale on 1st December..

It’s been a pretty exciting place at Wakestock Towers apparently and organisers are stoked that they have one of the headliners all signed up. Man of the moment ED SHEERAN will be making his return to Pen Llyn next year.

His chart topping debut album + has already sold more than 300,000 copies, and is second only to Jessie J’s album as the biggest selling debut of 2011. After his amazing Wakestock performance last year which saw him pack out the East stage at the early time of 7pm, organizers are honoured to bring him back as a headliner in 2012
