V FESTIVAL
Hylands Park - Saturday/ Weston Park - Sunday:
Academy Events favourite Mark Lanegan plays the Virgin Union stage just before Tricky and The Charlatans (you can catch them again at The Forum in Hatfield on 5th October) the glorious Ellie Goulding is an obvious must-see, Joshua Radin also plays earlier in the day in the Nissan Juke arena, see his stunning show and you'll see what all the hype is about
Hylands Park - Sunday/ Weston Park -Saturday:
Check out man of the moment Professor Green (4 Music Stage) before he opens O2 academy Leciester on 23rd September. You'd be crazy to miss spell-binding Imogen Heap play the Virgin Union stage, her show at O2 Shepherd's Bush Empire back in February is still the best live show I've seen all year. If you like what you see catch her back on tour in the UK this November. Cherry Ghost also play the same stage a little earlier in the day back on tour this Sept/Oct if you want to see these guys again

What we're listening to right now!
As you can imagine we're all major music geeks here at Academy Events! No one more so than me, I'll love checking out new bands and getting to as many gigs as I can.
I thought I'd share with you some of my current favourite bands, who we also happen to have the absolute joy of working with!
This week Not Advised play a few shows with us, lovely lovely guys. This song is still stuck in my head from their gig on Thursday...
