If Beck described something as “The coolest, most surrealist, funkiest, freakiest, best festival in the world”, would it pique your interest? In the saturated market of festivals, Festival No. 6 has spent the first six years of its life earning the title as one of the most eccentric and unique events dedicated to music and arts. Set in the stunning Italianate coastal village of Portmeirion, it’s impossible to escape the feeling of being somewhere special with the idyllic surroundings of an estuary, luscious mountains and exotic woodlands. The specially curated line up includes the up and coming and the established in music – headlined by Mogwai, Bloc Party and The Flaming Lips, conversations with icons from cultural circles such as Irvine Welsh, and comedy from the likes of Adam Buxton and David O’Doherty. Let the line up speak for itself.
Thu 7 – Sun 10 Sep, Portmeirion, Gwynedd, Wales, LL48 6ER, £180 – £335 (youth prices also available), Tel: 0203 871 3664, www.festivalnumber6.com
