#BEACONS2012
Greetings from Beacons. The cutting-edge music and arts festival will be taking place in a new location in the picturesque setting of the Funkirk Estate in Skipton this August. We are pleased to announce the 1st instalment of acts that will be performing this summer. A further 40+ acts will be announced in mid-March, including Saturday’s headline.
Beacons Festival is set in the heart of the Yorkshire countryside; an affordable festival brought to you by a collective of tastemakers who, for years, have been bringing the best music to reputable Northern venues such as Leeds’ Nation of Shopkeepers and Brudenell Social Club, Sheffield’s Bungalows and Bears, Club Pony and the Shipping Forecast. We’ve also got the organisers of London-based festivals and events like Underage and Field Day and the Shacklewell Arms venue on board. This year, the main stage acts are presented in association with The Stool Pigeon magazine. The people behind Manchester’s coolest band nights, Now Wave are on board, as are London’s Eat Your Own Ears. Beacons will be bringing together the cream of the cities finest club nights and gig venues for one weekend in Yorkshire.
Beacons is a three-day, four-night festival and for a short period, tickets are available at just £60 (plus booking fee) for the weekend, including camping. There is also a student price of £55 (plus booking fee). These tickets are only available in the shop on production of a valid NUS card.

Yeah Real Estate aren't playing for some reason which sucks. Japandroids are defintely playing though, someone asked on facebook and they said they'd be announced properly at the next announcement!

Real Estate seem to have been taken off it though, that's a bit rubbish.

I don't really know either, I guess they haven't been officially announced yet, but they're on the poster that's on this page?
