Groningen is preparing itself for the Eurosonic/Noorderslag festival; four days of music all over town starting tomorrow! Eurosonic is Europe’s largest showcase festival and takes places on Wednesday, Thursday and Friday followed by Noorderslag on Saturday, which is the yearly festival for Dutch upcoming talent as well as renowned acts. The festival kicks off tomorrow with the European Border Breaker Awards in the Stadsschouwburg in Groningen.
Everyone expects a lot of social chatter during the festival. For that reason, Dagblad van het Noorden and Crowdynews developed SocialSonic, the unofficial social web-app.
SocialSonic makes it possible to follow everything happening at the Eurosonic/Noorderslag festival through the eyes of the festival-goers themselves. The web application enriches the experience of both those attending and those at home. Connect with your friends, see what gigs they’re at and what they think of them, check which bands create the most buzz on social media and find out which acts the industry insiders and critics can’t stop raving about. SocialSonic brings the social experience of the festival to mobile, tablet and desktop in real-time, making that unique Eurosonic/Noorderslag vibe accessible for all.
Check the announcement in today’s Dagblad van het Noorden or find it online. Please note: it’s in Dutch.
