Get Your Passage Aboard the SMS Boat Parties

Get Your Passage Aboard the SMS Boat Parties

06 May, 2010

No it's not a text message but the Stop Making Sense Festival 2010, and its chartered a boat

The actual boat is bit bigger than this
Held in the popular Garden Festival site in the sleepy fishing town of Petrcane, north-west Croatia, SMS's inaugural year has followed in the footsteps of the Garden Festival and Soundwave by offering boat parties for its revellers.

Boasted as being “three days of musical anarchy by the sea” SMS looks to take some of that rebel fever aboard ship and with 200 people allowed per sailing, at £10 per ticket, and a crusading line-up things are set to get disorderly.

The sounds of Latino Barrio created by Movimientos will be setting the decks ablaze on the Friday afternoon 1.30pm – 4.30pm. King podcasters, Allez Allez, will be at the wheel for the sunset cruise of 7pm – 11pm. Fact magazine and Argentina's Bumbox street party DJs Matias Aguayo & Rebolledo are teaming up for the lunchtime boat party on the Saturday 1.30pm- 4.30pm, and Shoreditch-based Favela Chic DJs will be in charge for the sundown shift (7pm-11pm).

Sunday sets sail with London house party pioneers Ali Tillett, and Rob Summerhayes from Warm and will be joined on deck by Horse Meat Disco and Mark E to name a few. Sub Club will be your captains for the 7pm to 11pm ride on Sunday night.
