Alongside an impressive roster of acts, the festival will also champion a number of social issues with talks and panel discussions programmed by Hate Zine, an independent anti-capitalist publication with a focus on the housing crisis, the environment, and gender equality within the music industry and community. The festival also has an equal gender split and 2023 will see it work further on its sustainable ‘Positive Policy’, established to change the way live music events affect the planet.
