New outdoor dance music festival Till Dusk set to launch in Leeds countryside this summer
A new outdoor festival is set to launch in Leeds next summer, bringing a field in Kippax to life with electronic music.
Till Dusk will make its debut on Friday June 3 with a minimal, house and techno soundtrack.
The 500-capacity event will see the local DJs playing for 12 hours in a celebration of "all things Leeds. "
Josh Butler, who burst onto the house music scene in 2013 with his breakout track 'Got A Feeling', will close down the party from 9pm.
Joining him will be Leeds legend Bobby O'Donnell, the long time System and Mint Warehouse resident, Cocoon in the Park mainstay and E Numbers label head.
Yorkshire talents Parker Smith, Floosky, Cucillo and Kylo, one of the founding members and residents from TETRA, will add to the line-up.
The event's founder, Eddy Dobson, is a young promoter who grew up attending the city's one-day festivals and wanted to bring a new event to the scenic countryside, with uninterrupted views of what he hopes will be a stunning sunset.
Eddy said: "As the light disappears at any festival, the visuals and atmosphere just elevate to new heights.
"The music and lighting just capture you. So Till Dusk is the perfect name for a brand-new vibrant festival in Leeds."
