Meribel hosts the spectacular
Altitude Festival 2009
Back for the second year in a row, a week of first class entertainment - the Altitude Festival once again absolutely rocked the French Alpine town of Meribel. For one week from 28 March until 3 April, a veritable feast of international talent ascends to the quaint valley town sitting 1500m above sea level.
This year the line up featured massive live concerts from KT Tunstall, and The Dub Pistols supported by Mamas Gunn in the Ice Rink at the Centre Olympique. BeGood played host to the after parties to these cracking gigs and were joined by Bournemouth based DJ Danny Francis, the inimitable Brandon Block – and for the Dubs after party, Barry Ashworth himself who played an awesome guest set alongside Brandon. Meribel resident Rob Solari hosted the legendary Pool Party on the Thursday followed by Andy Norman from Hed Kandi.
