Summer Fun With The Aviary Series

Night: The Aviary Series, Tuesday 28th June 11
Venue: The Social, London, United Kingdom

As ever at Key, we're looking ahead, and something particular caught our attention this month.

Illustrious pop-clubnight-creators Gold Dust (who this year turned label for the release of Sparkadia's 'Mary'), and Australian lullabies Cloud Control are the suspects of this creation.

‘The Aviary Series’ will be something of a summer fling with The Social (London, W1W 7JD), in which weekly residencies will combine the powers of My Band’s Better Than Your Band, Communion, Rockfeedback (as well as Gold Dust, of course), to make the summer of 2011 as memorable than the summer of 69’.

On this particular occasion – the evening of Tuesday 28^th June – heaps of fun will occur, including: custom Cloud Control created cocktails, t-shirt designing and something of a raffle to ticket buyers (with prizes including Dinner with the band and Field Day tickets, weheey).

What’s more they have an AMAZING poster, which is always the most important thing about a club night/contemporary musical event. Obviously.

Here is the Facebook group, where everything happens:

Obviously there are a multitude of festivals as well, for which we all know about so do your thing there.
