Rewire announces Hildur Guðnadóttir, The Caretaker and Jon Hopkins for its 2020 edition

Next year's festival will take place in The Hague from 3–5 April

The Hague’s Rewire festival celebrates its tenth birthday in 2020 with a programme based around the concept of (re)setting: looking into the ways humans and sound relate to changing environments. “In an era defined by man's interaction with nature and advancing technological developments,” declares the festival manifesto, “(Re)setting considers new listening experiences, urbanisation, the changing rural landscape and the ecological crisis.”

Artists so far confirmed include Hildur Guðnadóttir presenting her score to Chernobyl, Jon Hopkins offering the Dutch debut of Polarity, The Caretaker & Weirdcore, Leo Svirsky & The River Without Banks, OOIOO, Ex Eye, James Ferraro, Ami Dang, Anna Meredith, Ben LaMar Gay, Blacks' Myths, Cucina Povera, Dis Fig, Gabber Modus Operandi, Galya Bisengalieva, Hiro Kone, HTRK, Ian William Craig, John T. Gast, Juana Molina, Katie Gately, Loraine James, Lorenzo Senni, Pelada, Rafael Anton Irisarri & Oliver Coates, Rafiq Bhatia, and YATTA.

Happening across more than 15 venues throughout the city, Rewire 2020 will run from 3–5 April. Tickets are on sale now with an early bird discount of €10.
