Time Out says

The pop-up, Scandinavian-themed musical forest that landed in Dalston last summer is back for 2015. Again hosted by cider manufacturer Kopparberg, this time the action takes place in Hackney Wick, but as before it still offers a packed programme of gigs and DJ sets, plus two bars (as you might expect, there's a lot of cider on offer) and street food from Mama's Jerk, Buffalo Joe and Le Bun.

The first acts to be announced include Katy B, Submotion Orchestra, Citizens!, Slow Club, DJ Yoda, Chromeo, The Cuban Brothers and Norman Jay, with many more to be announced. There'll also be a special edition of much-loved London club night Hip Hop Karaoke.

The forest comes alive every Wednesday-Saturday from June 10 - July 12 and entry is free, though last time around there were some entry hefty queues to negotiate when big names were playing, so get there early if you're gagging to get in. If you do make it in, you'll be able to enjoy a little of the ambience and aesthetics of a Swedish pine forest without any of those pesky pine needles getting into your shoes or having to pay for a plane ticket. Oh, and loads of great bands, booze and food, too. Line-up details below.
