Lauren Laverne has revealed earlier today that this year’s 6 Music Festival will take place in Tyneside, Newcastle. Laverne said that “Last year’s first ever 6 Music Festival was an incredible weekend featuring a fabulous line-up of music plus conversation at the Festival Fringe. It was great to meet so many of our listeners as we listened to the great and good perform together. This year’s 6 Music Festival is going to be one to remember”.
