All Tomorrow's Parties announce two new festival events for Spring/Summer 2013!

Weekend 1: ATP Curated by TV On The Radio - May
Weekend 2: ATP Curated by Deerhunter - June

Both events at Pontins, Camber Sands, UK

Tickets On Sale Thursday 10am 

This December the world famous All Tomorrow's Parties music festival returns to our original home - the recently refurbished Pontins holiday camp in Camber Sands - for two sold out festival weekends curated by The National and Shellac. Now we can announce the exciting return of our Spring/Summer festivals in the same location with two wonderful American groups curating- one from the North and the other from the South...

Weekend 1: ATP Curated by TV On The Radio - May 10th-12th 2013

Hailing from Brooklyn and responsible for some of the most mind-blowing, genre-exploding music of the last decade, from their fantastic debut "Desperate Youth, Bloodthirsty Babes", the critical success story of "Return To Cookie Mountain" and recent albums "Dear Science" and "Nine Types Of Light", ATP are extremely happy to invite TV On The Radio to curate and headline the May festival. The band are well known for their stunning live shows and we're sure they will be erudite curators. Their event takes place at Pontins, Camber Sands from Friday 10th - Sunday 12th May 2013.

Kyp Malone from TVOTR: "We are extremely honored and excited to be curating ATP! The festival will be a jam! The party will be a success! Rock over London, rock on Camber Sands!"

Tunde Adebimpe from TVOTR: "We are so excited to be doing this. We had so much fun playing ATP some years ago that to be able to come back and curate is a dream realized."

The first set of artists chosen by TV On The Radio for the event will be confirmed very soon!

Weekend 2: ATP Curated by Deerhunter - June 21st-23rd 2013

Hailing from Atlanta, Deerhunter have also been one of the most exciting up and coming bands in rock music in the last decade - with side projects Atlas Sound from Bradford Cox and Lotus Plaza from Lockett Pundt also grabbing huge acclaim and helping to build their very dedicated fanbase. They are long time ATP regulars (and favourites) and we're very happy to have them head the bill - they will play three different sets, each showcasing a performance of one of their LPs "Cryptograms", "Microcastle" and "Halcyon Digest" in full. There will be an Atlas Sound show, and Deerhunter will also of course be picking the rest of the June festival line-up. Their event takes place at Pontins, Camber Sands from Friday 21st - Sunday 23rd June 2013.

A statement from the band: "ATP has been a part of our lives as Deerhunter for many years now and it's a great honour to be asked to curate."

The first set of artists chosen by Deerhunter for the event will be confirmed very soon!

The curators for each event will headline and choose the rest of the 35 band bill playing across their respective events on the venue's excellent indoor stages featuring award winning sound, also featuring DJs until late, Cinema and much more! Tickets include accommodation in private apartments for you and your friends - tickets must be booked in groups of 4-7 people.
