Esg, Weatherall And More For Alfresco Festival

Blackpool based Alfresco Festival have announced the line up to this year's one day event. Taking place on Sunday May 24th at Blackpool Cricket Club, the fest that combines a left-of-centre bill together with family friendly vibes will be headlined by New York post punk  evergreens ESG. Other big names include Andrew Weatherall and Sean Johnston's A Love From Outer Space, wonky disco magic from Shit Robot, and classic Factory records fodder from Section 25.

A tent entirely dedicated to family activities is promised, with theatre, science workshops, circus skills, and (and we're sold on this one) a robotoc, life-size baby T-Rex.
