(Very exciting) news just in…
We will be celebrating 10 years of ATP from December 2009 to December 2010. As the fastest selling ATP ever, Nightmare Before Christmas curated by My Bloody Valentine is almost sold out, to get things going for our milestone, ATP is incredibly excited to reveal that we will commence our 10th birthday festivities with a second weekend in December and we want you to come and party with us!!!
The Ten Years Of ATP festival will take place at Butlins Resort in Minehead from Friday 11th December to Sunday 13th December, 2009.
As this is our birthday party – it is going to be very special weekend. For the line up we are inviting our nearest and dearest to play – which means past ATP curators, ATP recordings artists and some ATP favourites thrown into the mix too…
So far confirmed to play are:
Explosions in the Sky
Dirty Three
Shellac
Tortoise
Melvins
Mudhoney
The For Carnation
Papa M
Deerhoof
F**k Buttons
The Drones
Sleepy Sun
Bardo Pond…with more curators, recording artists and ATP favourites to be announced! Tickets for this special event will be priced at £160 per person for room only accommodation and £170 per person for self-catering.
More info on this and indeed all other ATP events can be found here.

Sweet Jesus what a line up.
They couldn’t NOT invite shellac, could they?
Well they did curate before and we’re trying to get all of the old curators back.
No I know that… I meant it feels like it wouldn’t be ATP without them….
i’d like to see Band Of Horses, Wilco, The Shins, Teenage Fanclub and Broken Social Scene on there if we’re talking about past great ATP additions. Bon Iver too.
Any chance of Sunn O))) and Earth? Or a Godspeed reunion?
Please say yes.
Hitting the MBV one so doubt gonna make this. Looks great though!
