The xx to curate their own festival

Fresh from their triumphant return to Ireland for two sold-out show's at Dublin's Olympia Theatre, The xx have released details of three unique one-day festivals which they will curate.

“Night + Day is a series of events, curated by us, to start in the summer of 2013. We searched high and low for unique and beautiful locations to stage these shows and picked the artists that we most respect and admire to join us. The events will run from early afternoon, with some of our favourite music (and food) to take you from day into night.”

The events will take place at Lisbon’s Jardim da Torres de Belém on May 5, Berlin’s Spreepark on May 18 and London’s Osterley Park & House on June 23.

There will be an exclusive mailing list pre-sale for tickets on Thursday December 13 at 10am. You can sign up for the mailing list and check out all the other information over on the festival website here.
