Underage Festival 2009London festival organisers are quick to realise that by not allowing youngsters to many events they are alienating a hugely influential segment of the music-buying market - which explains the spate of "underage" live music events going on in the capital nowadays. The Underage Festival in Victoria Park claims to be the world's first and best under 19s music event of its type - and this one has a twist, for not only are the crowd all MySpace users aged 14 to 18, but many of the lesser-known performers are themselves teenagers, giving young bands a huge leg up in the industry. Gary Glitter headlines at this alcohol free event... only joking (about Glitter, that is, for booze is strictly prohibited and there's an 8pm curfew). Big names confirmed for this event are The Pigeon Detectives, Ladyhawke, Hadouken!, Matronomy, Santigold, The Horrors, Mystery Jets, Underground Heroes and Patrick Wolf. Now in its third year, the Underage Festival is the brainchild of 17-year-old Sam Kilkoyne and, along with the Underage Club, the concept has been critically acclaimed by the media and the enthusiastic adolescent audience it benefits.
 

About Victoria Park

One of London's best kept secrets, Victoria Park is a fantastic place to spend an afternoon. The city's first public park, it was opened in the East End in 1845 after a local MP presented Queen Victoria with a petition of 30,000 signatures. More about Victoria Park
