Beach Break Live Saved!

But the troubled festival won't be taking place on a beach...

Next week's Beach Break Live festival has found a new venue. The student event will now take place at Kent's Port Lympne Safari Park from the June 16 to 19. The licence was denied for the original site in St Agnes in Cornwall over safety fears from the local council.

Dizzee Rascal, Ladyhawke and The Zutons are all due to play. "Gilgermesh, God of Summer Festivals has answered our prayers," say the organisers.
