Big Chill Festival set for return in 2013 “in different form”
Big Chill organiser Melvin Benn has revealed the festival is likely to return next year.
Speaking to BBC Newsbeat, Benn has said that the Herefordshire event could be revived in 2013 but with a different look and format.
2012′s edition had be cancelled earlier in the year due to artist availability and the inevitable clash with the London Olympics.
Benn, also Managing Director of Festival Republic, told the BBC:
“I’m sure something will return that will have a completely fresh take on what a festival should be.
The Big Chill was a clash with the Olympics but more importantly with the Big Chill it was me not being absolutely certain where I wanted to take the festival and what I was doing with the festival.”
Big Chill Festival 2011 saw the likes of Kanye West headline.
