After a two-year delay, the Bluedot festival finally returned to the Jodrell Bank Observatory. It’s not been the easiest time for festivals because of covid, Brexit, inflation and a cost-of-living crisis now beginning to show its teeth.
Bluedot’s uniqueness lies in its location and its eclectic mixture of science, culture and music, and with Superstructure Entertainment taking a controlling stake in the festival, any worries it might not stay true to its roots were dispelled by 2022’s event.
Here are some of our photographic highlights, which sadly do not include their camera shhhhhhy headliner.
