We are proud to be partnering with the following …
After the massive success of 2009, the Soundwave Festival is one of the most interesting new lifestyle / cultural properties around. The combination of a breathtakingly beautiful site, real music lover’s line-up and one of the most clued up, fun loving crowds around means that the festival can only get bigger and better.
In 2010 Soundwave is interested in developing unique partnerships with relevant brands that improve the experience for festival goers as well as ensuring that all parties receive the maximum benefit and added value from any such activities.
For key levels of partnership the listing and branding is carried on advertising, press, websites and marketing of the festival, ensuring your brand will benefit from huge awareness potential and the combined media value of all marketing and PR activity.
For brands that wish to be even more involved in the festival’s future, opportunities also exist ranging from hosting one of the many boat parties and club nights, to involvement in the beach bar or the main stage, branding of the transfer bus from the airport right up to co-presentation of the festival itself.
Branding partnership opportunities also exist with Soundwave promoters Soundcrash and New Bohemia’s UK events. Two of the leading independent promoters in the country, their events at venues such as Koko, The Roundhouse and The Shepherds Bush Empire in London, Concorde in Brighton, the O2 Academy, Faversham and HiFi Club in Leeds, The Arches In Glasgow, Fiddlers in Bristol and the Deaf Institute in Manchester have featured some of the biggest names in hip-hop, electronica and leftfield music.
Notable past events have included:
- The Cinematic Orchestra, at the Royal Albert Hall.
- Mos Def at the Shepherds Bush Empire.
- Roots Manuva at Koko.
- Mr Scruff at Blank Canvas in Leeds.
- Fat Freddys Drop at the University of Leeds.

Their monthly roadblock sessions at Cargo and Koko in London, regular shows in Bristol and Glasgow and spectacular one off events at The Roundhouse, The Forum, Shepherds Bush Empire and even The Royal Albert Hall, have consistently promoted quality leftfield music, from up and coming DJs and producers to some of the biggest names in hip-hop, breaks and beats including The Cinematic Orchestra, Mos Def, Method Man, Roots Manuva, DJ Krush and Hexstatic.
