====================
Red List Live is a new for 2009, held at Port Lympne Wild Animal Park in Kent from Friday 19th until Sunday 21st of June, and hopes to raise money for endangered animals.

The festival promises big name live music acts and DJ's and will offer around 200 acts in total, along with a host of other activities, including the animal park which will be open to all festival goers!

The acts confirmed include headliners The Zutons, plus UK Subs, Conflict, The Dead Pets, The Wombats, British Sea Power, The Damned, The Alarm, LightsGoBlue, Klaus Says Buy The Record, Archie Bronson Outfit, and White Rose Movement, The Undertones, and many more with many more still to be announced.

Red List Live has also teamed up with National Geographic Kids to present the Family Area. The are will have African drumming classes, staff and zoo keepers giving educational talks, creative activities including craft workshops, face painting and fun and games through each day of the festival.

The festival will also feature the Urban Area which will host Peaceful Progress an area complete with graffiti walls and demonstrations, break dancing and beat box performances and tutorials.

The festival is not associated with last year's ZooThousand festival, it just happens to be utilising the same site.

£5 from every weekend ticket sold, and 50 per cent of the profits from the festival will go to the charity. A fundraising target of £100,000 has been set for 2009, with the festival hoping to help donate £1,000,000 for some of the world's most at risk animals in five years. Red List LIVE will also help raise awareness of the endeavours of the IUCN's Red List of Threatened Species which is widely recognised as the most comprehensive, objective global approach for evaluating the conservation status of plant and animal species.
