LAI MUMS VISIEM LIELISKS FESTIVĀLS!
Synth-pop duo Hurts has topped a poll of music fans who gave the best performance at this year's Glastonbury Festival, beating the likes of Beyonce Knowles and Coldplay.
Manchester-based Hurts who will perform at Positivus Festival on Friday, July 15th, took the top spot in the poll - which posed the question: 'Who stole the show at Glastonbury?' - with a rating of 8.13 out of a possible 10 points.
Veteran group U2 and relative newcomers The Wombats fell into second and third place, with 7.41 and 6.79 points respectively, while Chris Martin's band Coldplay came in at four in the poll, just ahead of Two Door Cinema Club and Beyonce.
Pulp, Queens Of The Stone Age, Elbow and Kaiser Chiefs rounded off the top ten in the poll, with popular bands like Mumford & Sons, Chemical Brothers falling just outside the top ten performances according to NME readers.
The music magazine ran a poll in June asking readers to vote for the best ever Glastonbury performance, which last year's Positivus headliners Muse won for their 2004 headline set on the Pyramid Stage.
The visitors of this year’s Positivus`11 festival are going to be pleased to discover that Nordea has provided them an easy access to funds – two ATMs of Nordea will be available to public throughout the event. One of them will be located within the confines of the festival venue, the other – outside it.
The organizer of Positivus festival Ģirts Majors comments the fact, “Having ATMs within the territory of the festival is going to be one of the most positive surprises, as it is not an infrequent thing that you find yourself running out of the cash taken along faster than expected. This practice is a novelty for Latvia, but already being used in the most popular European festivals, so that the visitors would not have to worry where to dig up cash. Together with Nordea, we take this to a new level for us.”
Nordea Head of Retail Jana Strogonova reveals, “The idea of setting up an ATM for Positivus festival occurred to us last year already. We are happy that we managed to make it come true and get even closer to our customers and visitors of the event. The nearly seven metre tall ATM structure will be the peak point on the main street – what we are going to provide is not merely an ATM featuring the traditional functions, it also will be a convenient and visible meeting spot.”
We would like you to be reminded that you can still obtain entry tickets to Positivus`11 in Nordea ATMs, and at a good price, besides. Festival tickets will also be available on spot, during the event. By now, each day we see a number of tickets being bought via Nordea ATMs. This service is available to customers of any bank without an extra commission fee being charged.
During this year, Nordea has considerably expanded its ATM network. Nearly 400 ATMs are available to Nordea customers in Latvia, in Riga as well as in rural regions.
Unfortunately Danish indie rock band The Kissaway Trail have cancelled their appearance at this year's edition of Positivus Festival due to recording commitments.
Create a unique, unusual and comfortable chair, take part in the competition and go to the most positive event of this summer – Positivus Festival. The British Council and Positivus will give away free tickets to the festival up to 30 best designers of an “unusual” chair.
Participants of this competition must use only eco-friendly and recycled materials, for example, recycled PET bottles, pallets, tyres or old furniture. The chair must hold an adult's weight, however, considering a flight of imagination, there are some restrictions: the chair’s weight must not exceed 10 kg. Furthermore, it should be a handmade work, because simply painted chair will be disqualified. More information about the competition rules and regulations can be found on the British Council Creative and Cultural Economy homepage www.creativeeconomy.lv
“In the sheds and garages there are a lot of interesting and unusual things, which “waits” for their appearance on the big Positivus stage! Last year we had a great experience in organising the tent contest, therefore this year together with Positivus Festival we organise the contest which is available for everybody who has a creative imagination and skilful hands! The competition winners will get the tickets to Positivus Festival and have the possibility to take part in a creative workshop with British designers and young entrepreneurs Nick Rawcliffe from Rawstudio and Adam Fairweather from Re-Worked. British designers will create various objects of art from used at the festival PET bottles and glasses," – said Maija Udre, Young Creative Entrepreneurs program manager (the British Council Latvia).
Moreover, near the British Council’s tent and the festival entrance everybody will be able to get British groups’ song’s lyrics, which will be performing at the festival. The main aim of this activity is to popularize the free English language learning resource on the Internet from the British Council - LearnEnglish.
Finally, the poets from Latvia and the United Kingdom will be performing urban poetry slam for all visitors of the festival. Urban poetry slam is a competition at which poets read or recite their original work. After that these performances are judged by audience which chooses a winner. This competition distinguishes from others by the fact that poets are evaluated by their original work as well as their performance.
