Tel Aviv’s Block club launches festival

Richie Hawtin, Nastia, Ben Klock and Dixon have been confirmed for the September event

Tel Aviv's Block club, home to a custom built rig that is widely regarded by many fans and DJs as the best sound system in the world, has announced details of its debut festival.

The Israeli nightspot, which originally opened in 2008, has had everyone from Richie Hawtin to Gilles Peterson singing its praises, and this September you get the chance to spend an entire three days straight in the club’s confines.

Taking place between September 21 to 23, Block Festival will see the venue playing host to Richie Hawtin, Nastia, Dixon, Ben Klock and plenty more across its three rooms.

There will also be an 'urban yard' area with a 20 metre high glass ceiling featuring bars, food stalls and a few hidden rooms. For more info head to the Facebook page and buy tickets here.
