Summer 2015 welcomes the return of The Faversham Garden Party celebrating 10 Years this August with an exceptional two day festival over the August bank holiday weekend, 29th - 30th, at the Tetley Brewery.

As one of the north's most esteemed cultural events The Garden Party have unveiled plans to make their 10th Birthday celebrations the biggest yet. Evolving into a two day festival on 29th - 30th August at the iconic Tetley's Brewery in the Leeds city centre, The Garden Party Leeds spans a weekend of immersive art, street food and of course, musical performances from the very best live acts and DJs. The extensive live bill features the ultimate diva of electronica Roisin Murphy, one of the most recognised names in hip-hop Yasiin Bey AKA Mos Def, Swedish four-piece Little Dragon, Nordic king of disco Todd Terje and roots singer-songwriter Ady Suileman. The Garden Party will also welcome live performances from the favourite tea-making DJ Mr Scruff and up-and-coming Romare.

Keeping the party going on the DJ side will be John Talabot, Grandmaster Flash, Black Coffee, Innervisions co-founders Amê and funk & soul legend Craig Charles. The legendary Kerri Chandler, BBC Radio 1 regular Heidi, the Bicep boys, Paul Woolford, Redlight, Shadow Child, B.Traits, and Patrick Topping will also be performing over the bank holiday weekend.

Far more than just a music festival The Garden Party Leeds will bring to life the iconic Tetley brewery, teaming up with the creative minds at Mad Ferret. The Garden Party revellers will enjoy curated Food and Drink by Leeds Indie Food Fest, including worldwide street food, fresh stone baked pizzas courtesy of Pizza Fella, El Kantina's Mexican delights plus the Cocktail Shack.

Dedicated to showing the talents of the north and providing a creative hub for its musicians and artist, The Garden Party Leeds will be the ten year evolution from one of the UK's most loved club promoters to a festival highlight of the summer.
