Jupiter Artland and (EAF) Edinburgh Art Festival have announced that JUPITER RISING x EAF will return in 2024 for a one-night-only event this August.
Held in Jupiter Artland’s iconic landscape, JUPITER RISING is Scotland’s artist-driven art and music festival that is now partnering with EAF for a second year to throw a party with a full programme of experimental music, poetry, artist performance, the return of the infamous late night stage and more. This year’s festival will take a Queer Summer Fete as its theme, expect experimental best in show, acid bright bunting, gay-pole dancing, and a towering cake bar serving drinks all night.
JUPITER RISING x EAF invites audiences to explore, discover and celebrate underrepresented artistic voices, championing queer artists and experimental practice. With the full line up to be announced, organisers can now reveal that the event will be opened with a special Scottish launch with Gemma Rolls-Bentley to launch her latest book Queer Art : From Canvas To Club, And The Spaces Between with EAF24 artist Prem Sahib. Later in the evening Sgàire Wood will be back for Sgàiraoke, before we dance the night away at our infamous late-night stage, this year curated by Femmergy – an intersectional, open space to celebrate femme art and music. Explore the park after hours with Jupiter Artland’s summer exhibitions Andrew Sim and Laura Aldridge open until 7:30pm.
Following the success of last year, we are thrilled to partner with EAF once more for a one-night-only party at Jupiter Artland. JUPITER RISING is central to our programme, and it’s fantastic that the ethos of this event is aligned with the programming from the EAF team. We look forward to welcoming audiences this August.
– Nicky Wilson, Director, Jupiter Artland.
Now in our 20th year, EAF seeks to celebrate resistance through this year’s programme. I’m so excited to continue this collaboration with Jupiter Artland, it’s become a massive moment in EAF’s programme that welcomes audiences to an evening of art and performance.
– Kim McAleese, Director, Edinburgh Art Festival.
