Being a stupid Englander for years I assumed the Dour Festival was some kind of mass goth/Smiths gathering. Of course Dour is actually one of the biggest and best festivals in Europe, 4 days, 6 stages and 220 acts ranging from Faith No More (yay!), Errors and Monotonix to Carl Craig, Chris Cunningham and Simian Mobile Disco.
Now in its 22nd year, Dour takes place between the 15th and 18th of July in, you guessed it, the village of Dour in Belgium. It looks amazing, my Belgian (yes, that’s how cosmopolitan I am these days) friends are always raving about it and now we’ve got a handful of tickets to the festival to give away.
Unfortunately this competition is only open to UK residents, and you should probably scope the T’s & C’s (basically you’ll have to sort out your own travel and camping) but the long and short of it is we have 5 (yes five!) pairs of tickets to give away.
Take a look at the question below, email your answer here (before Friday 11th June), and we’ll randomly select 5 lucky winners from the correct entrants.
Q: Name one of the acts who played at the first Dour Festival in 1989?
