Wireless Festival Launch Party, Birmingham

Last week it was announced that the famous Wireless Festival will this year be coming to Birmingham – it’s about time the second city got some recognition and hosted a festival. The line up was announced at 8am on Tuesday morning and includes Bruno Mars, Kanye West and Outkast to name a few. The festival will be taking place at Perry Park and tickets are on sale now.

On Tuesday night, Live Nation put on a launch party for the festival at Birmingham’s O2 Academy for lucky competition winners and press. I went along armed with my new camera and a press pass all excited to find out who the special guest performer was going to be. We were greeted with a glass of bubbly and a goody bag (some lucky people actually had tickets to the festival in theirs!) and then we were treated to a dj session by DJ Sparky from Free radio before the amazing Ella Eyre took to the stage. I must admit, I hadn’t heard of her before that night but Ella Eyre was fantastic and gave such a brilliant performance. Of course, I recognised the song that she did with Rudimental but since then I’ve had a search on YouTube and have been listening to her other tracks.

I absolutely loved her outfit and have managed to track it down. Ella wore the Annie A Line Mini Skirt in Monochrome Symmetry and the Mindy Turtleneck Crop Top in Monochrome Symmetry from Motel Rocks.

    Wow – this looks amazing! I have never been to a festival before – and keeping emailing organisers asking if disabled friendly, and every time I get told….no! Ah – a girl can dream 🙂
    Love Vicky
