The organisers behind the UK’s dance festival Glade are currently seeking a new site for their 2009 event, which they hope to run from 16th-19th July.

Nick Ladd, Glade Festival’s chief said, “Wasing has been a great home for us for our first five years, but as part of the natural evolution of Glade we have decided to find another beautiful bit of England, in particular somewhere where we can run it later on all nights including Sunday, and make some proper noise!”

This year Glade won Best Dance Festival at the UK Festival Awards, and around 10,000 “dance music and free spirit aficionados” attended the event, with performers that included Pendulum, Noisia, Drumattic Twins, Cassette Boy and DJ Rubbish.

We created a Best of Glade festival 2008 chart back in July, which gives you a good indicator of what music to expect - check it in the player below.

It’s hard to describe Glade in one punch, but an electronic music version of Glastonbury might fit.
