Meltdown (festival)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Meltdown is an annual music festival held at the Royal Festival Hall, part of London's South Bank Centre. Since its inception in 1993, the festival has been curated by a single person each year, usually a notable musician or composer (the single exception to this rule thus far has been disc jockey John Peel, who curated the 1998 event).
