Ibiza Legends & Underground Faves - This Is Mint Festival

It's becoming a theme to talk about the growth of festivals in the UK - it was even topic of many news articles last week. And when looking at growing festivals, there seems to be one that stands out...

Mint Festival is now approaching its fourth consecutive year and, this year, on 19th/20thSept, it's following the other growing festivals around the world and expanding to a two day event in the Leeds area. Just looking at its huge line up it is shaping up to be an incredible celebration of dance music up North!

Unlike many other festivals we've previously been apart of, Mint presents something very different to the generic 'festival.' It's a celebration of music, of underground music.

Putting all the smoke and mirrors aside, it's a celebration of the DJ which, in this day and age, is an almost forgotten about art. Rather than the generic 'mainstream' headline act who even your gran will know, Mint hosts a barrage of underground cult heavyweights with massive credibility and followings. It's great to see the bigger acts such as Duke Dumont return to the festival that played a huge part in his rise to chart success.

Speaking of the line up, allow us to name just a few: Ibiza legend and Club MTV friend Luciano, Jamie Jones, Seth Troxler, Paul Oakenfold and the list goes on and on. Definitely something to get excited about.

It is really refreshing to see this individualistic take on a festival and we are really hyped to be a part of it.

Mint is fast becoming a force to be reckoned with and with all early bird tickets sold out, its fan base thinks so too.

You can still get your tickets for this awesome two day event here.
