"This year's ninth annual goNORTH promises to be the best yet with an engaging combination of stellar acts, a raft of industry figures confirmed as attending, an expanded programme of activity acknowledging the wider creative industries of contemporary visual art, film, fashion and design and literature, and a notable sense of anticipation from the public at large excited about witnessing 'the next big thing'!"
