First Travel Solutions (FTS) is delighted to announce that they will be supporting the 2017 Leeds Music Festival with coach travel to and from the event for the thousands of festivalgoers that are expected to attend.
Leeds Music Festival has become an iconic event hosting rock, pop, indie, electronic and alternative music all under one banner. With an eclectic mix of the world’s biggest artists, pulsating sounds and a fantastic atmosphere this festival is now at the forefront of the British music scene. This year’s event takes place from 25th to 27th August.
Richard Kirk, Commercial Director at FTS comments; “We’re delighted to once again be supporting promoters Festival Republic with the 2017 Leeds Music Festival. Due to the sheer scale of this event it presents many logistical challenges for everyone involved, not least the safe and smooth transfer of festivalgoers to the site on the outskirts of Leeds.
At FTS we will once again be drawing on our FirstGroup fleet as well as our wider network of trusted and accredited suppliers to ensure there’s a safe and reliable coach shuttle service in place for the duration of the event.
We’ve already started the internal process of planning for this large scale event and once again we’ll ensure we have staff on the ground for the duration to assist festivalgoers as they travel to and from the event.
In addition to this we’ll have a dedicated website where festivalgoers can visit in advance to purchase coach shuttle tickets. This speeds up the boarding process greatly and gives customers one less thing to think about on the day.”
The 2017 festival once again takes place at the 75,000 capacity venue Bramham Park just outside Leeds. Major headline acts have already been announced including Muse, Kasabian, Eminem, Bastille and Liam Gallagher.
