Lineup and Details for SOUNDS OF AFRICA on Sat 16th June 2012

GOLDFISH (live), JESSE CLEGG (live) & DJ KENT are just a small part of the diverse lineup for the 2012 event in London. Each artist represents their unique sound, covering various genre's from Rock, Pop, Electronica and Jazz on the main stage to Deep House, Electro & Techno in room 2. If sound is not enough for you, be visually blown away by the LED backdrop, fire explosions, Ibiza's famous ice and confetti cannons + a surprise guest appearance only to be revealed on the night.
Sounds of Africa are bringing you the "wow" factor, a concert that London fans will be talking about for weeks before and years after!
VENUE
========
The Coronet Theatre opened its doors over 100 years ago and to this day has managed to retain all of its art deco features. Originally conceived as a public hall, it appeared as Theatre Royal in 1872 but a fire in 1878 lead to renovations. One year later The Elephant and Castle Theatre opened its doors to the public and a very young Charlie Chaplin soon graced the stage. Nowadays the Coronet Theatre plays host to some of London's most iconic concerts and is the perfect setting for the Sounds Of Africa concert holding a capacity of over 3000 people.
