Win a pair of VIP passes to Wild In The Country
Knebworth, 5 July
“Has God played Knebworth?” Noel Gallagher once asked, comparing his own fame to that of the Almighty. Arena has no idea, but if we were omnipresent, we’d be paying special attention to the Hertfordshire venue on 5 July, as Bjork makes her only UK festival appearance this year for Wild In The Country. As well as the Icelandic headliner, WITC will feature Foals, Soulwax and a DJ session from Mylo. For those who don’t think of themselves as the ‘festival type’, there are even toilet attendants laid on! Click here to win two VIP passes.
Early Bird tickets are now sold out, but you can still buy tickets for £54 online. Alternatively, call the 24-hour box office on 08712-307137.
