The Brussels Core music festival has announced the first names. Angèle and Alt-J, among others, will come to the Ossegempark at the end of May.
Brussels pop singer Angèle will play another home game on Saturday 27 May, on the Core stage. The two-day festival – a collaboration between Tomorrowland and Rock Werchter – is only in its second edition, but the first names announced today are no different. In addition to Angèle, the Englishman Alt-J and the American rapper Anderson.Paak (as NxWorries with his colleague Knxwledge) will also make an appearance at the foot of the Atomium.
Just like last year, the festival brings a mix of pop, indie, hip-hop and electronica. The eclectic lineup is further complemented by Charlotte Adigéry & Bolis Pupul, Goldband, The Blessed Madonna, Romy, HAAi, DOMi & JD Beck, Denis Sulta, Honey Dijon, Kokoroko and Unknown Mortal Orchestra.
Last year the festival attracted 40,000 spectators. Unlike the first edition, which took place on Friday and Saturday, the festival will be moved to the weekend, Saturday 27 and Sunday 28 May. Presale starts Friday at 11am, more acts to be announced later.
