LATITUDE PREVIEW<br />
<strong>Bounce</strong> <strong>Magazine</strong> attend the annual Latitude Press Day<br />
to see what our local festival has in store for us in <strong>2018</strong>...<br />
<strong>Bounce</strong> <strong>Magazine</strong> were thrilled to be<br />
invited along to this year’s Latitude<br />
Press Day Preview at Henham Park.<br />
We caught up with the Latitude<br />
booking team to find out what is in<br />
store for <strong>2018</strong>.<br />
To kick start the morning we were welcomed<br />
by Melvin Benn, shortly followed by a freshly<br />
made stone baked pizza from Ipswich<br />
based company ‘Fundi<br />
Woodfired Pizza’, who<br />
will be in attendance<br />
amongst many new food<br />
suppliers at this year’s<br />
festival.<br />
“I felt the food needed<br />
a refreshing this year,”<br />
commented Festival<br />
Republic’s Managing<br />
Director, Melvin Benn.<br />
“Joining our fantastic music headliners are a<br />
long list of unparalleled talent from the latest<br />
and best upcoming artists, and after the<br />
success of Theatre Of Food at Electric Picnic,<br />
it only made sense to bring the amazing<br />
demonstrations that come with it to Henham<br />
Park, plus with even more Street Feast<br />
vendors, and unbeatable family offerings, this<br />
will be the best year yet.”<br />
There are dozens of new activities joining<br />
original favourites in the Kids, Teens and<br />
Families areas at Latitude <strong>2018</strong>. We spoke to<br />
Kids and Family Programmer, Sharon Reuben,<br />
who said:<br />
“With three separate areas for kids, teens and<br />
families having fun together, Latitude aims<br />
to be the best and never disappoints! In the<br />
spirit of everything that Latitude is famous for,<br />
we’ve created a mini-festival of our own with<br />
everything from science to literature, drama<br />
and music to visual art and we’re ready to<br />
keep you entertained all day.”<br />
Saturday Day Tickets have<br />
now sold out for Latitude <strong>2018</strong>,<br />
however, weekend tickets are<br />
still available to see The Killers,<br />
Solange and Alt-J.<br />
The Killers headline show in the<br />
Obelisk Arena on the Saturday<br />
night is going to be an ultimate<br />
spectacle as the band will be<br />
playing a euphoric careerspanning<br />
set. The Las Vegas<br />
quartet have five albums of hits to unleash,<br />
including their latest number one album,<br />
‘Wonderful Wonderful’.<br />
We caught up with Lucy Wood, Latitude’s<br />
Music Booker, who said “I don’t know how I<br />
am going to top The Killers next year.”<br />
She will be attending this year’s festival no<br />
less than eight and a half months pregnant,<br />
“This may shock some people... however, this<br />
is my first full year as Latitude’s Music Booker,<br />
