The iTunes Festival is a music festival which is held every year in London. As the name implies, the series of concerts is sponsored by Apple.
The first festival was held in 2007 with a modest lineup of artists. With each year, the lineup expanded both in terms of number of artists and overall popularity of said artists.
This year’s festival will begin on 1st July at The Roundhouse art center in London. There will be 62 bands performing over 31 nights. The tickets are given away for free to people with iTunes accounts through competitions. You can apply for tickets from the official website.
From the app’s official page:
31 nights. 62 bands. 1 official app.
