Arcadia returns in 2013 and announces that they will be taking their mega Arcadia Spectacular shows to two of the UK's most loved festivals; Glastonbury and BoomTown Fair.

There will also be some smaller structures and installations at a variety of festival across the UK. With art work that needs to be seen to be believed, Arcadia will once again be taking the UK festival season by storm with their hedonistic fusion of fire, aerial acrobatics, bass pounding DJs and an unparalleled aptitude for putting on the best show in the land! 

After Glastonbury’s hiatus last year, Arcadia Spectacular will be back in the fields of Pilton from 26^th – 30^th June to delight the festival faithful with their notorious booming sound-system and sky-high flame throwing sculptures! Moving out of their usual spot in the 'late night' South-East corner, this year Glastonbury have commissioned the Arcadia Spectacular stage to take up residence in The Other Stage field. No longer in their own field, the external Arcadia sculptures and installations will be scaled back but the breath taking show will be bigger and badder than ever and they have been given the honour of kick starting the festival proceedings on Thursday night! The show will start at 9.30pm so festival goer’s are encouraged to arrive nice and early to the sound field and ensure the ultimate Arcadia Spectacular experience!  

On the Friday, Saturday and Sunday nights, the ‘Arcadia Spectacular’ showcase will explode from midnight, after The Other Stage finishes, and will be treating the Glastonbury crowds to three solid hours of unadulterated, out-of-this-world fire shows and bass pounding DJs. Arcadia will also host performances from a selection their international collaborators including; element manipulators and YouTube sensations - The Lords of Lightning and the thrilling display of the ultimate in fire art - the Fire Tornado. For more information on Arcadia collaborators and additional background see this interview with the creators HERE. 

The only other place to catch the full Arcadia Spectacular show for summer 2013 will be at BoomTown Fair (8^th – 11^th August 2013). Having landed with a mighty ’boom’ in 2012, The Arcadia Spider took the craziness of BoomTown into another stratosphere! For BoomTown 2013, the Arcadia beast will once again be on the move, stomping its way through the winding streets of BoomTown and landing in the heart of DownTown! Arcadia will have even more space to do what it does best and set BoomTown’s night-crawling underbelly a light with heart thumping bass and electrifying entertainment! Tickets are available for BoomTown HERE. 

Aside from the ‘Spectacular’ shows, Arcadia will be popping up at a select handful of UK festivals with their mix of mutated vehicles, after burner DJ Stages, installations and site art, as well as creating more incredible scrap metal masterpieces around the globe - all still to be announced.
