Glastonbury Festival 2013
Block9
Following the success of the acclaimed Block9 Field at last year's Festival, the radical set design duo are back to host another sensational apocalyptic spectacle this year.
Block9 – A late night wonderland of breathtaking creations and serious soundsystems will be open from sunset to sunrise and includes bars, nightclubs, a restaurant, huge art installations and extremely alternative cabaret.
The London Underground
The crowning glory of the Block9 field is the mighty London Underground. A sinister, 50ft decaying tower block with a life-size, blazing tube train bursting from the 5th floor, this towering nightclub venue showcases the cream of London’s soundsystem underground.
The NYC Downlow
Celebrating 5 years of mayhem, Block9’s legendary NYC Downlow returns in 2011 bigger and badder than ever before. In this life-size ruin of an NYC tenement, the murky homo fantasies of The Downlow crew fuse to resurrect New York’s golden age. Horse Meat Disco, will be back on the decks alongside some very special guests. Expect the finest disco, soul, funk and early/acid house all night, every night.
The Downlow Radio
After 2 years online as the number one portal for the global homo-soul-funk underground, www.thedownlowradio.com takes over a brand new 2nd room within The NYC Downlow. It’s all about the simple pleasures in life… a black box, a fat sound system and a collection of the hottest, vintage-black-music devotees this side of the Atlantic!!!
Block9 are proud to introduce their partners in crime…
The Pale Blue Door - The Plantation
A house, a hotel, a few shacks, a bit of dinner, an escort or two, a deranged Greek and some gone on Chileans...
