Description
Dot To Dot Festival, a known platform for rising musical talents, had its 5th anniversary year in 2010. Working out a secure reputation for selecting the finest emergent music scenes of two crucial musical cities, the festival promoters judged that the right time came for another challenge. This all resulted in bringing the great event to Manchester for the first time, and this point was an important milestone of the event in some way.
After a stellar lineup and success across the North-West for the inaugural Manchester edition of Dot To Dot Festival, it signals the start of the next chapter in its history. Headlined by the hotly tipped Mystery Jets, the bill features outstanding performances from Ellie Goulding, Zane Lowe, Beach House, Los Campesinos!, and Washed Out.
The great lineup of performers, together with the warm reception by the audience, made the festival a venue for further editions, marking its presence in yet another lively musical hub.
In 2023, Bristol and Nottingham stages were ablaze with electric performances from Mercury award nominees Yard Act and indie dreampop legends Alvvays. The list of acts was eclectic, including The Murder Capital, Finn Foxell, Kofi Stone, Yune Pinku, Hamish Hawk, High Vis, 86TVs, Grove, BEKA, Fat Dog, Cryalot, Opus Kink, Nieve Ella, Benefits, Sophie May, Antony Szmierek, 49th & Main, Divorce, Nix Northwest, and Yot Club. The weekend was a roaring success, with the Bristol leg selling out and both Yard Act and Alvvays delivering captivating headline sets at Nottingham's Rock City and Bristol's O2 Academy, respectively.
Dot to Dot Festival 2023 brought out all the stops to show its diversity and innovation, making quite the mark on attendees and furthering its reputation as one of the top emerging music platforms.
