Muse have been confirmed as the first headliner for the Friday night at Lisbon's NOS Alive, formerly titled Optimus Alive. Also confirmed for the Friday is Alt-J.
Tickets are now onsale from here.In addition, NOS Alive is overjoyed to be shortlisted in the ‘Best Overseas Festival’ category at the UK Festival Awards 2014.
Set in the heart of Lisbon the festival has become synonymous with sun, sea, sand and exceptional musical programming. It’s the ultimate designation for lovers of music and culture who want to do something affordable, on a budget. The festival is located in the heart of Lisbon, a 5-minute drive from the capital’s beautiful historical landmarks and bustling nightlife. With some of Europe’s best beaches and surfing spots only 15 minutes away and temperatures reaching 30 degrees during the day, NOS Alive is very much a ‘beach by day, music by night’ destination festival. The gates open at 4pm and close at 4am, with festival-goers either booking local accommodation, camping in the festival campsite, or booking one of the hostel and hotel packages on offer from the festival.
Previous artists to have played the festival include Arctic Monkeys, The Libertines, Foals, Depeche Mode, Radiohead, The Cure, Pearl Jam, Beastie Boys, Smashing Pumpkins, Bob Dylan and Blondie alongside legendary electronic acts and DJs such as The Chemical Brothers, The Prodigy, Justice, Deadmau5 and Simian Mobile Disco to name but a few. Striking the perfect balance with massive acts and emerging artists, last year’s dance tent read like a who’s who of tastemaker UK electronic talent and included the likes of Daniel Avery, Gold Panda, Disclosure, Two Inch Punch, Dusky and Mosca.
With a 3-day pass costing under £110 and more economy direct flights between the UK and Lisbon than ever before, NOS Alive is going from Europe’s best kept secret to a main fixture on many UK festival goers’ calendars.
