The mighty Mogwai who curated the very first All Tomorrow’s Parties festival at Camber Sands back in 2000 will return for the final hurrah alongside Godspeed You! Black Emperor, Low, Tortoise and many more.

The new additions follow the news that Television will headline End of an Era Part 1 performing their seminal ‘Marquee Moon’ in its entirety with further sets from Chelsea Light Moving and Dinosaur Jr. The much loved (and sorely missed) LOOP are reforming specially to curate and perform at the final Camber Sands festival (End of an Era Part 2) which will also now feature Mogwai (lines ups for each event listed overleaf).

Stuart Braithwaite of Mogwai comments:”It’s an incredible honour to be asked to close the final ATP holiday camp festival. We couldn’t have imagined when we curated in 13 years ago that the festival would have had the impact that it’s had. Back then festivals were moving further to the mainstream and I think the continued strength of underground music in the UK owes a big debt to the work done by ATP. I think getting to play with Loop, musical heroes of ours will be a fitting way for us to close this event.”

All Tomorrow’s Parties End of an Era part 1 will kick-off at Camber Sands from the 22^nd – 24^th November curated by ATP in partnership with the feted Spanish festival Primavera Sound.

The final festival – End of an Era part 2 will take place from the 29^th November – 1^st December and to mark the occasion, LOOP – the much loved art rock collective who became Peel Session stalwarts in the late 80s have reformed to headline and curate, alongside ATP.

Loved by festivalgoers of every generation, this is the perfect family day out in every sense of the word.  The festival was set up as a non-profit event to help fund bursaries for The New West Heath School, a charity that helps rebuild the lives of traumatised children.

Christina Wells, Principal at The New School at West Heath said, “Lawnfest is the biggest event on the School calendar.  All the students are very excited. Our focus as music, arts and food festival is proving to be very popular and we are expecting 3,000 people this year.  It is important to remember why we put this event on.  It is to raise much need funds to enable vulnerable youngsters who are not currently funded by their Local Authority to be able to come to our School.   Camilla Al Fayed is very much at the helm in terms of the organisation of the event again this year and our charity is very dear to her heart.”
