Countdown to Latitude Festival 2011!

Arguably the jewel in Suffolk’s festival crown, Latitude returns this summer to defend its title of The World’s Most Middle-Class Festival. But don’t let that put you off – there’s enough on offer every year to satisfy the appetites of all youthful hedonistic adventurers.

If the headline acts of The National, Paolo Nutini and Suede don’t do it for you, how about indie-noodlers Foals, earnest singer-songwriter genius Bright Eyes, quirky retro-popster Paloma Faith, alt-folkster Iron & Wine and Suffolk’s hot new superstar Ed Sheeran?

And that’s not even mentioning everything else going on all over the festival to pique the interest of anyone remotely into arts and culture, from Omid Djalili and Adam Buxton in the Comedy Arena, Steve Coogan and Rob Brydon in the Film & Theatre Tent, Simon Armitage and Saul Williams in the Poetry Tent, Louis de Bernieres and Dave Gorman in the Literary Arena, plus loads of theatre, cabaret and other fun randomness.

In fact, in case you didn’t already realise, the festival organisers are keen to stress that Latitude is totally more than just some bands playing in a field. It’s a cultural all-rounder, and a great weekend whether you’ve brought your partner and kids or just three crates of cider and a toilet roll.
