Harvest Festival 2011 line-up: Flaming Lips & Portishead Announced

The rumours about Harvest Festival appear to be true, and what an epic line-up! Harvest Festival is a new event brought to you by the guys behind Soundwave and Soundwave Revolution. This festival aims to bring a typical European festival line-up to our shores, but without the filler acts we’ve all seen a thousand times.

The biggest surprise act is Portishead, who will return to our shores after a 14-year absence along with The Flaming Lips, who are an experience to see live just by themselves. Joining these two will be The National, Bright Eyes, Hypnotic Brass Ensemble, Holy Fuck, The Family Stone, Mercury Rev, Death In Vegas, The Walkmen, Dappled Cities, PVT, This Town Needs Guns, The Holidays, Phosphorescent, Foxy Shazam and Kormac’s Big Band

The festival also boasts a mesmerising atmosphere by setting the events in magnificent, natural, green environments; show off all that natural beauty with ambient lighting and visual effects; and place within it art installations, holistic markets, cocktail bars and a plethora of performers — from visual and live arts mavericks to neo-cabaret stars.
