SAVIFEST
21 October 2011
East Kilbride based charity SAVI is staging the best value, one-day festival in Glasgow since Live and Loud. With 18 bands and acts on show, including well-known headliners, at just a tenner, fans can get to see a selection of the best the Scottish music scene has to offer for less than a pound per act! On offers will be a heady blend of Rock, Acoustic, Soul and Pop provided by new and established bands and solo artists from all over Scotland, culminating in a line up set to rock the roof off the Barrowland's Halls 1 and 2, and offer a very entertaining evening for all ages and music tastes. This diverse musical event is being showcased from 7pm Till 12pm on 21 October on behalf of SAVI (Sexual Assault Victims' Initiative), set up for families and child victims borne out of one family's tragic experience, their continued determination to influence change within the legal system, and to help young victims and their families cope with the aftermath of sex attacks. Tickets now available from Ticket Scotland or from the SAVI website. For more details on this event and information about the charity, please see the website: http://www.savi.co.nr/ or call the 24 Hour helpline 0800 622 6986
