Advertorial: Get ready for The Secret Garden Party 2014
By Will Stroude
Secret Garden Party has made a name for itself as a truly unique and wholly hedonistic festival experience. This is a Serious Party where everyone participates in parades, forums, huge spectacles, immersive theatre and unique happenings.
With Cambridgeshire’s breathtaking countryside as its backdrop, SGP is about so much more than just the music. The field in which it takes place is dotted with gigantic art installations, beautiful lakes, and an impressive 14 music stages – all of which add to this social aspect – with each area becoming its own ever-changing microcosm. On top of this, events such as naked wrestling, break dancing, and soap sliding means there’s never a dull moment.
And the music ain’t half bad either! More diverse than most, this year’s festival will see the likes of Little Dragon, Hercules & Love Affair, Fat Freddy’s Drop, and Martha Reeves & The Vandellas share a bill with Public Enemy and the returning MØ. On top of these big names, SGP will once again be nurturing some of the UK’s finest up-and-comers with the likes of Fat White Family and Foxes to name a few. Like all good festivals, SGP holds a special place in its heart for dance music and this year is no different with Maya Jane Coles, Artwork and the always-wonderful David Rodigan already confirmed.
