Live from Jodrell Bank are a series of shows taking place on weekends throughout the year on an outdoor stage right in the shadow of the towering Lovell telescope. This diverse array of shows or transmissions will span all genres of music with some of the best international and nationally renowned artists. As well as providing an amazing backdrop the telescope will also be serving a secondary purpose as the worlds most incredible projection screen!

Throughout the day there will be experiments and workshops along with free access to the new visitor centre – but come evening it’s all about the music and one mind-blowing and totally unique show!

Live from Jodrell Bank is brought to you by the creative minds behind Kendal Calling festival, The Warehouse Project and Ear To The Ground.
The Flaming Lips // British Sea Power // OKGO // Alice Gold

Only Brian Cox and a suprise appearance from D:ream could make this any better!

For the record, Brian Cox will definitely be playing keyboards with BSP. So gutted I can't go, seen BSP 11 times this past 12 months, would be great to make it 12.

Anybody know of any campsites within walking distance!?!??! At the minute, looks like we're walking back from Brum at 11.30pm! Still, worth it for the Lips!

Yeah...I noticed that on google maps! Was tempted just to pitch anywhere but didn't want to wake up in some 'Wickermanesque' nightmare...
