Global Gathering 1st Lineup Announced

Tuesday, August 26th, 2008

Hot off the heels of the most successful Global Gathering in the UK to date, Mellen Events, Future Entertainment, the Angel Music Group and Ministry Of Sound Australia announce the most dynamic and groundbreaking joint venture the Australian music industry has seen in a very long time; the launch of the Global Gathering Festivals across the country this coming November.

Since its launch in 2001, Global Gathering has become the world’s undisputed front-runner of dance festivals.  A massive 50,000 revellers congregate annually from all corners of the globe at the renowned Long marston Airfield, Stratford Upon Avon in the last weekend in July, creating the biggest dance and live music weekender of the European summer.  This year’s record attendance exceeded 55,000 and stood tall as the strongest performer amidst the myriad of UK festivals this summer.

This is a landmark union between Australia’s largest festival promoter and international touring agent, Australia’s most recognised dance music brand and record label, and the UK’s most successful dance festival promoters.
