Everything you need to know about Escape Into The Park Festival 2008 guide - including news, line-up, dates, videos, photos, reviews, ticket information and more...

Escape Into The Park

When: June 14

Where: Singleton Park, Swansea

What: Escape into the Park is still a baby compared to its dance festival rivals but that hasn't stopped it making a name for itself. The 20,000-strong crowd who attended last year's event secured the festival's place in Welsh dance legend. Expect first-rate DJs and specialist sets that tour student unions across our fair isle, namely Hed Kandi and Godskitchen, across eight stages. And there's no need to pace yourself for a weekend of partying, all the events happen on one night - spend the next week getting over it.

Tickets: £45 for the day (includes booking fee). £62 for VIP admission (includes booking fee). Doors open at midday.
