Gilles Peterson’s Worldwide Festival 2009

Great Vibes at Peterson's Worldwide Sun, sea and sand. The key ingredients for any great holiday. But what if you could also add chilled wine, sophisticated beats and sexy people? This is the winning formula of acclaimed DJ Gilles Peterson and he’s back with a splash in the fishing resort of Sete, South France from July 2 – 5. With something for party heads of all ages, this festival is one not to miss and thankfully not a spot of mud in sight. Oh no. Leave the glow sticks and wellies at home; shorts and a smile are all that’s required.

The action takes place in Sete, a picture-perfect fishing resort for four days in July. Don’t let the quaint scenery fool you as Sete has a selection of breath taking venues, from amphitheatres on the Med, to beach bars and a huge outdoor venue surrounding a lighthouse. Peterson is king of the vibes and this year won’t disappoint with an essential selection of jazz, electro and genre-busting artists such as Jazzanova, Earl Zinger, Carl Craig, Diplo, Laurent Garnier and the list goes on! Still not convinced? Well, you’ll be sharing the vibe with 4,000 other chilled, like-minded party heads too.
