ATP 2.0, curated by Drive Like Jehu, will now take place at Manchester's Victoria Warehouse.

ATP are now also selling day tickets for £35 each, and weekend tickets for £100.

A press release states: "Please note that all ticket holders who have purchased chalets will be provided with accommodation at hotels in close proximity to the new venue, and ATP have contacted ticket buyers individually to advise on these changes on a case by case basis, assisting with transport changes where necessary. If you are an Drive Like Jehu ATP ticket holder and have not yet received contact from ATP, please emailfeedback@atpfestival.com."

Speaking about the venue change, Victoria Warehouse owner James Cohen says: "The beauty of the Victoria Warehouse is the flexibility of the space creating both intimate and expansive areas, which allow us to create an ideal setting for hosting indoor music festivals. The sheer raw industrial feel of the buildings which have kept many of its original features, mirrors ATP Festival’s ethos of originality and independence. We look to forward to hosting ATP’s debut event at our venue and building a long standing relationship which such an iconic brand.”

All tickets for the original venue remain valid.
