HUB festival has joined forces with Streetwaves this year so that the winners of the annual contest will get a chance to perform at the Festival.

HUB Festival is the UK's biggest and best, award winning urban youth festival. From 29th - 30th May (11-6pm), they take over Otterspool Prom for two days of break dancing, tricks and art. Pete King and his team at King Ramps will bring Europe's largest portable vert ramp, and there will be appearances from the UK's top riders, competitions, give-a-ways, free promos and after show parties to look forward to.

Streetwaves is open to all bands in Merseyside, aged 14-25 and able to play a 30 minute set. The application form is here.

MAIN STAGE APPLICATIONS
There's also an alert on their site that if anyone applied on the 10th or 11th March to play the main stage, then they need to re-submit for technical reasons.
