Rock En Seine Festival is a three-day music fest that takes place in a park in Paris (Domaine de st Cloud) on August 26, 27 & 28. I went two years ago and this year I’m giving away a pair of passes to this year’s event which features the following lineup over four stages:
Interpol, Q-Tip, Foo Fighters, Arctic Monkeys, CSS, Deftones, Odd Future, Death in Vegas, Lykke Li, The Horrors, Trentemoller, Gruff Rhys, Tinie Tempah, Austra, Wu Lyf, Death From Above 1979, CocoRosie, Anna Calvi, Smith Westerns, Kid Cudi, Jamaica, Wolf Gang, Grouplove, Le Corps Mince De Francoise, The La’s, Crocodiles, Paul Kalkbrenner, Etienne De Crecy and more.
Three days tickets are sold out now and you can either camp, get a hotel or an apartment. It’s very close to the city so no problems there. To be in with a chance of winning a pair of tickets, email [email protected] with ‘Rock En Seine’ as the subject and your name and address before Friday at noon.

I wonder if Q-Tip is still playing this. He cancelled his Dublin gig in late August and his twitter says the European tour has been rescheduled.
