SON Estrella Galicia’s micro-festival heads to Brighton with Panic Shack and Plantoid

Cardiff-based quartet Panic Shack are set to headline the event, with Brighton's own Plantoid, who recently released their debut album, Terrapath. DJ sets from Kike Louie, Lee Petryszyn and Henry WP will take place throughout the event.

Estrella Galicia’s beer experts will be providing an exclusive What Does Your Beer Sound Like? tasting workshop, showcasing the brand’s artisanal and multi-sensory approach to their craft. Local vendors Carlito Burrito will be the gastronomic partners for the event, and there will be beer pairing recommendations for which these events have also become known.

On the partnership, Victor Mantiñán, Head of Global Music Sponsorship at Estrella Galicia said: “We are delighted to be growing the SON Estrella Galicia project in the UK, for the first time bringing our micro-festival to a progressive, arts-focused new city in Brighton. For this debut event at The Prince Albert we are very excited to be engaging with the local community and sharing our passion for music, beer, and positive impact via fantastic artists, beer tastings, and a beach clean-up and waste transformation.”

Since 2009, SON Estrella Galicia has created events that offer a twist on the traditional concert experience in Spain, Brazil, Portugal and the US. They have become well established in the London scene with events at Paper Dress Vintage in Hackney, with performances from the likes of Los Bitchos, Teleman, Dream Wife, Prima Queen, DEADLETTER and more. Now, the micro-festival steps out of the capital for the first time, and heads to Brighton.

They will continue on their path of reducing environmental impact by collaborating with activist organisations Leave No Trace, WE Sustainability and the local Brighton community through a beach clean-up. The aim of this is to raise awareness and inform people about the management and transformation of waste, through the creation of a mural in the Prince Albert Hall, combining art with the message of respect for the planet
