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.

      That’s fine until your favorite band goes to too small of a venue and you can’t get a ticket

        That often has more to do with the promoter not limiting ticket sales per person/credit card than anything else.
