TRUTH STAGE



Shangri-La’s mighty Truth Stage shouts loud and demands your attention! It’s right here that the sounds of the revolution resonate well beyond sunrise with an eclectic musical programme featuring acts from around the world, uniting the tribes. The truth is out there… the truth is yours!

The huge wraparound artwork is a collage from some of our favourite graphic designers, co curated by John Owens at Instruct Studio and Pasted by the Infamous subvertiser Dr D.

Artworks from: Tash Wilcocks, Anthony Burrill, Danny Fucking Price, Dr D, Ellie Thomas, Imbue, Jane Bowyer, Jane Pluer, John Owens, Josh Beetham, Laura Jackson, Louise Hardman, Maxine Gregson, MIKESIAN, Ross Osborne, Raissa Pardini, Studio Dotto, Yas Banks

 Highlights include rap-punk duo Ho99o9 (Earache Takeover), Biffy Clyro’s extreme metal side project Empire State Bastard (Earache Takeover), five-piece jazz outfit Ezra Collective, cosmic dross band HENGE, and groundbreaking, internationally acclaimed drag collective featuring highly addictive queens and kings with Down-Syndrome, Drag Syndrome.

This year the Truth Stage will be hosted each day by a line-up of some of Shangri-La’s best mates; taking care of business on Thursday will be Angel Mel, taking over the stage on Friday afternoon will be Craig Charles, while Friday evening’s festivities will be brought to you by Clare Ferguson and John Swale. On Saturday Angel Mel will be back on duty but this time she will be bringing some friends, and on Sunday Drag Syndrome, Clare Ferguson and John Swale will be guiding proceedings like only they can.
