Big D presents: The Apocalypse
It’s set to be a huge one
The theme for this year's Big D event has finally been announced and it looks set to be another huge one.
Following on from last year's Cosmos-themed festival, this year the Big D team will be hosting an Apocalypse themed one this year.
The festival will take place on Monday 3rd June from 8PM – 3AM with the headliners set to be announced over the coming months.
They promise "an explosive night, with a deadly lineup and food selection to die for!"
The event is recommended if you're "willing to sesh like there's no tomorrow" and if "the prospect of having to leave uni for the summer feels like the end of the world."
This year, the festival will be supporting York Mind to help support mental health in the city.
You can register your interest on the Facebook event here so that you will be one of the first to know about any Big D news.
