We Are FSTVL: Where Else
We Are FSTVL: Where Else
Where will you be from the 26th to the 28th of May this year? If you answer is anything but soaking up sun and great tunes at We Are FSTVL then the folks at Licklist seriously recommend you rethink your life priorities. With three nights of music, an easily assessable London location and over 225 artists spread between 20 eye-catching stages there as little more about the festival that needs to be said. If you are 18+ and a lover of EDM, House and Grime then there would no better place for you than among the 50,000 people that will flood the Airfield of Dreams Upminster venue. Pushing one step further than the triumph that was We Are FSTVL 2016, this year organisers have created an even more awe inspiring environment with new stylised structures and arenas to cater to your every party need.
Who’s Playing
Bringing together some of the best club acts of your lifetime, this years line-up shows so much promise. Set to headline the We Are FSTVL stage on Saturday they have the legendary Craig David presenting his TS5 set. TS5 started out as the most exclusive pre-party of Miami, hosted personally by Craig David in his own private penthouse home. Bringing the party to the UK, Craig David will unleash the same energy in his set combining old school classics with his own vocals. Such an event that should be marked an unmissable climax of any enthusiast’s summer. Dizzee Rascal will be headlining the We Are FSTVL stage on Sunday. As British Grime royalty, Dizzee Rascals set speaks for itself; interested in hearing some old school urban tunes that still ring true then get involved. Backing up the grime invasion, Giggs will be tearing through a powerful set on the Sunday. Catering to EDM and House needs simultaneously, Peckham’s own Katy B will be playing some of the catchiest club tunes of the last 5 years on Saturday. While I could reel off the whole line-up, you should get on the site and check it for yourself (http://www.wearefstvl.com/line up). For all things dance you won’t find better, both old school and up and coming. Join the exodus of kids in the know.
Need Somewhere Fancy to Wipe the Muck off Your Trainers?
While we at Licklist would always advice getting stuck in at the cost of your own dignity, if you fancy a more elite festival experience, We Are FSTVL can cater adequately. With a VIP ticket, you can expect a whole different festival experience. With access to the We Are VIP Village you can still enjoy the hottest dance acts the world has to offer but with exclusive comfort and style. The We Are VIP Village has tonnes to offer including luxury toilets (practically a throne compared to usual facilities), queue jumping abilities, award winning bars, a champagne garden and so much more. If you want to take the luxury experience one step further than maybe VIP camping is for you. With private luxury showers, a luxury suite of posh toilets and more you would truly be seeing the festival experience from the other side of the coin
Easy Access
Are you a London local? The Upminster site is a mere 20 minutes from central. A free shuttle bus service will be running so there is no need to waste any stamina that will be much needed later.
Get On It Before You Miss Out
With tickets selling out for last year’s festival in record time it is better not to think too hard. Want to have the best time experiencing the hottest dance acts from a Central London location? Then get stuck in before you’re left behind…..
We Are FSTVL is from the 26th-28th of May at Aveley Rd, Upminster; More information can be found at the homepage http://www.wearefstvl.com/
