Our music line-up has been carefully selected to provide the perfect soundtrack to the festival. As the tempo of the festival waxes and wanes over the weekend, so too does the music, as we run the gamut of genres – from chilled out folk and ambient electronica to foot stompin’ honky tonk and floor filling party starters.
Featuring Andrew Weatherall, Erol Alkan, Beth Orton, NZCA Lines, Sam Lee & Friends, Bo Ningen, Adam Green, Night Beats, Bill Ryder Jones, Gwenno, Sidestepper, Imarhan and many more.
Words have always been at the heart of Port Eliot and this year we scale new heights. We’ll explore the theme of words through an illustrious line-up of writers, thinkers and performers as they pair up to chew the fat.
Noel Fielding will be in conversation with Whithnail & I writer and director Bruce Robinson; Dawn French will be interviewed by Miranda Sawyer; Sonic Youth’s Kim Gordon will discuss her work with Jamie Brisick; Gloria Steinem will recall her life on the road with our founder Cathy St Germans; Isy Suttie will interview Sara Pascoe about her book Animal; Michael Morpurgo will reveal the inspiration behind his best selling novels to Chris Cleave, and Jesse Armstrong (creator of Peep Show and The Thick of It) will be in conversation with fellow comedy writer and Emmy Award winner David Quantick.
