Can you believe it’s been over 20 years since the release of Death Cab For Cutie’s? Transatlanticism and the post Stand up? Us neither. Ben Gibbard’s two 2000s indie classics came out in 2003 – and now, just over two decades later, he’s celebrating both records by playing them in full at a headlining show at All Points East.

The 2024 edition of Victoria Park Festival has already headlined jam-packed lineups featuring Kaytranada, Loyle Carner, Mitski and LCD Soundsystem. Death Cab For Cutie and The Postal Service are headlining the final day of this year’s festival – and it’s set to be a great day for indie throwbacks. Also playing on Sunday (25 August) are Yo La Tengo, Phoenix, Sleater-Kinney, Teenage Fanclub and Gossip.

Heading to the APE this Bank Holiday Sunday? Here’s all the essential information you need to know, from the full schedule and stage breakdowns to the weather forecast.
