From the River to the Sea by No Tags
By Kit Macdonald
"Culture is a tool for struggle and transformation. In the face of occupation, repression and colonisation we cannot remain still. This day will be a collective act with a clear objective: to raise our bodies, voices, and support networks in solidarity with the Palestinian people." So say No Tags of their solidarity mini-festival, From the River to the Sea.
The event goes down over two stages and eight hours, with the main stage featuring sets from Yanamaste, Sylvia b2b with no.masc, 8Kitoo b2b with Meritxell De Soto, Sofy Suars b2b with Tomi Mercado and Tamarindo b2b with marianella. The club stage, meanwhile, welcomes THANILA, Tarino, ADHDaddy and pepapepapepapepappapapeppappp, who sadly may need to consider a name change if they wish to court global mainstream success, with live lights by Austin Strobo.
The organisers have made five different ticket-price tiers available, to make the event accessible to the widest possible range of people. "We ask everyone to be conscious and solidarity-driven when choosing the ticket price," they add. All tickets are available on Resident Advisor, and all artists and event workers are contributing their services pro-bono - 100% of proceeds go towards humanitarian aid for the Palestinian people.
