Give It A Name Festival is a defining indie rock & emo tour experience from the mid-2000s, known for its evolving formats across the UK and Europe and for featuring landmark headliners of the era. Launched in 2005 at Alexandra Palace in London, the festival grew from a single-day event into multi-city runs that highlighted up-and-coming and established bands alike. While the festival as a live brand evolved through several configurations through 2010, its influence on the UK’s festival scene remains notable. Here’s a concise biography, discography highlights, and a snapshot of its touring legacy, with links to official pages and social channels where applicable.
