Other Isle of Man Music Festivals
The Garden Party
'We are a small but ever-growing unique festival based on the Isle of Man which started out in 2010. Our mission is to give the public what they really want in a music festival and in doing so, promote the wonderful local talent we have here on the Island, support local business and local charities. The dates of our event are always centered around the Island’s Tynwald celebrations and the name is actually a nod to the garden party that is held annually by the Island’s Liuetenant Governor who is the Queen’s representative on the Isle of Man. The event is held in Begoade Fields, Onchan which is just outside the main village and not far from the Island’s capital Douglas.' www.thegardenparty.im

With her would I go.”

—Marguerite Duras (b. 1914)
“Truly fertile Music, the only kind that will move us, that we shall truly appreciate, will be a Music conducive to Dream, which banishes all reason and analysis. One must not wish first to understand and then to feel. Art does not tolerate Reason.”
—Albert Camus (1913–1960)
“Why wont they let a year die without bringing in a new one on the instant, cant they use birth control on time? I want an interregnum. The stupid years patter on with unrelenting feet, never stopping—rising to little monotonous peaks in our imaginations at festivals like New Year’s and Easter and Christmas—But, goodness, why need they do it?”
—John Dos Passos (1896–1970)
