Yungblud is hoping to shake up the world of overpriced music festivals by launching his own affordable event, called Bludfest, in August at the U.K.’s Milton Keynes Bowl.

Tired of inflated ticket prices, recording artist Yungblud is launching his own affordable music festival.

Bludfest takes place on Aug. 11 in the iconic Milton Keynes Bowl, which in the past has hosted the likes of David Bowie and Green Day in Buckinghamshire, England, northwest of London.

Yungblud, whose real name is Dom Harrison, thinks that currently festivals are “unrepresentative of people” — so he’s fixing the price point of Bludfest at 49.50 pounds (around $63).

And he hopes to expand it out of the U.K. if it goes according to plan, taking the concept to different regions across the globe.

    Joining him on the bill are Lil Yachty, duo Soft Play, Nessa Barrett, Lola Young and Jazmin Bean.

    The British star is also offering a “Make a Friend” option for fans attending alone.

    You can either chat before on a Discord channel, or go to the designated tent and meet people in person.
