Birmingham’s Supersonic Festival occupies an exalted position at the vanguard of the festival circuit. And rightly so. Since its inception over ten years ago, it has maintained a staggeringly focused and intelligent curatorial policy, transcending the music and art worlds to present a programme teeming with invention, audience participation and a certain amount of unpredictability.
Supersonic Festival is returning in 2017 on the weekend of June 16th-18th, back in a big way! We might have taken a year off in 2016, but behind the scenes Capsule have been keeping busy, as the subsequent line up announcements will soon prove…
Nowhere else will you find a festival experience quite like Supersonic’s – since 2003, we have been hosting superior weekends for the adventurous listener, taking care to present only the most artistically relevant and irreverent acts from the UK and across the globe, while simulatenously making sure to fill every moment with the opportunities to let loose and party, or sit down at engaging talks, discussions and workshops, or take in exclusive screenings and exhibitions. The clip below is from 2015.

Working closely with the local community and priding itself on being all ages (the ‘kids gigs’ notorious fun for music loving families), the reputation of Supersonic is one hard earned and well deserved – long may it continue to light up the hearts, minds and calendars of those who attend.
Stay tuned for big announcements very soon
“Supersonic is a place to be educated and surprised: new, experimental and intellectually nourishing.” – WIRE
“Having been a journalist for 15 years I’ve had cause to work at approaching 100 festivals all over the world and in my opinion Supersonic has the consistently best quality line-ups and is the most engaging and stimulating to fans of underground music. Certainly no other festival introduces me to more new and exciting music than this one.”

Learn to make aleatory music using Hexadic System, listen to cosmic disco and Oregon psych, or take your kids to an ‘Introduction to experimental music’ gig led by the exuberant Flamingods. The most alternative and daring festival on the list, Supersonic has secured its experimental reputation with over 10 years of consistently innovative and explosive concoctions of visual installations, films, exhibitions and music. Its status has been confirmed in this year’s partnership with The British Library and the success of its recent crowdfunding campaign that raised over £21 000. Guaranteed to open your eyes and ears to music and art outside the predictable genre labels and familiar performance spaces, Supersonic thrives on the spirit of adventure and discovery; and with four-day passes at only £95 it is a bargain to boot.
Music highlights: The Pop Group, TOMAGA, Flamingods, DELIGHT IS RIGHT – Richard Dawson, Eternal Tapestry, Happy Meals, Liima (Efterklang + Tatu Ronkko),Six Organs of Admittance, Slow Magic, The Will Gregory Moog Ensemble
