Tis the season and we’ve got a few reasons for you to be jolly!

Christmas is upon us and it’s a time for living, a time for believing, a time for giving and a time for all the other things Cliff Richard was talking about. With that in mind Hot Press have teamed up with the wonderful folks over at KnockanStockan to offer you the chance to win two Weekend Tickets for KnockanStockan Festival 2019. The festival returns for the 19th, 20th, and 21st of July 2019.

The festival would also like to officially announce the opening of submissions for all music for KnockanStockan 2019.

“Every year we receive a crazy amount of submissions (last year was just north of 1500) and while it may take us a fair amount of time to get through them all and cause more than a few serious arguments among the line up team it’s one of the most rewarding and eye opening parts of the festival planning. Everyone can see that we’re in an incredibly exciting and vibrant time for music in this country and it’s amazing to hear the music that will shape the festival for the coming year and the bands that will be making waves further down the line.”

To apply for KnockanStockan 2019 just hit the website and follow the link for musicians.
All other submissions, art, installations, traders, volunteers etc will be open early 2019.
