[edit] UK Soundwave Festival

Soundwave Festival, held every year at the Scarborough Spa Ocean Room, Scarborough, UK, is a music and arts festival created by the DIY (Determined Independent Youths) Collective, a group of young people from around the Scarborough area. It was first held in 1999, and has been held every year since at the same venue. Local musical talent is showcased, and art and craft workshops are held throughout the day of the event. Previous headliners include The Dead Pets and AntiProduct. This year's event will be held on July 31st, again at the Spa Ocean Room in Scarborough.

The main idea behind the festival is to showcase local talent, as well as provide free music for the young people of Scarborough. Henceforth, there is no entry fee. Most finance comes from fundraising events, and sponsorship grants.

There is also a similar winter festival, slightly lower key, that goes by the name of 'Snowave'.
