ITV are the new broadcasters of the festival. ITV2 will TX three 60 minute shows over the festival weekend, the last three tracks of each headline performance coming live to air. We will also deliver a 60 minute highlights show that will TX on ITV1 a couple of weeks after the festival.
The Great Escape… 350 bands, 30 venues, 3 big days and nights at the seaside and every Tom, Dick and Harry from the music business. We have made a half hour show for Channel 4 that captures the vibe of the festival and gives a sip of the talent on show. The show is presented by the lovely Matt Edmondson, features performance from The Cribs, Marina and the Diamonds and Ellie Goulding and goes out on Channel 4 at 12.25am on 22nd May.
