Belgium’s Dour Festival expands its eye-popping line-up with a raft of hip-hop, dance and punk acts.
The latest additions include modern gangster and recent FACT interviewee Freddie Gibbs and young buck Mac Miller, who join a mighty rap line-up that already includes Wu-Tang Clan’s Raekwon and Nas performing Illmatic.
Bristol bass specialist Addison Groove beefs up the dance arena alongside techno boss Boddika, Tale Of Us and Ta-Ku, and there’s reggae and dub in the shape of Clinton Fearon & Boogie Brown Band and Congo Natty feat. Congo Dubz & Tenor Fly.
Swedish punk stalwarts The Hives are the other big name added this week – see the full list of new additions below. They join a line-up that already includes Jeff Mills, Mogwai, Hudson Mohawke, Machinedrum, Fuck Buttons, DJ Rashad, Joey Bada$$ and more.
This year’s Dour Festival takes place on July 17-20. Tickets are on sale now priced €127.
