Oxfam is to host a late-night dance tent at Leeds, so that those there can shake their booty until 2am - this is one of the only venues on site with a late music license.
The Oxfam tent is located at Leeds festival on Traders Alley, opposite the wristband exchange, and will by-day host a Fair Trade coffee shop with sofas, DJs, games and grub. By night, this will be transformed in to a rocking dance tent, with funky tunes, awesome visuals and a great festival vibe.
Oxfam is at both the Leeds and Reading festivals this year, gathering support for Make Trade Fair - the campaign that calls for governments, institutions and multinational companies to change the rules so that trade can become part of the solution to poverty, not part of the problem. If you're going along, make sure you add your support by signing the Big Noise Petition.
And check out the Oxfam shop at both festivals - it'll be selling wellies, blankets and fancy dress stuff at bargain prices.
As well as Oxfam, ActionAid are taking their "Bollocks to Poverty"
campaign to Reading festival, calling on world leaders to say “Bollocks to poverty” by delivering trade justice.
In the ActionAid Space tent, volunteers will be encouraging revellers to deliver this simple message to Blair and other world leaders: “Bollocks to poverty – trade justice now”.
The 1,500-capacity ActionAid Space, at the entrance to the main arena at Reading, will offer festival goers a cocktail of playful campaigning, punked-up karaoke, chill-out DJ sets, and fun and games from 3pm till late. Find out more and also purchase exclusive Bollocks to Poverty t-shirts at www.actionaidspace.org.
The confirmed music line-ups for both festivals include the headliners of Pixies, Foo Fighters, and Iron Maiden, along with The Killers, Kings of Leon, Marilyn Manson, Queens of the Stone Age, Razorlight, Incubus, and many more. For the full confirmed line-ups to date, click for Reading or Leeds.
