*********************************************************************
Last year, set by the shimmering waters of Lake Malawi, 200 people from the UK travelled to southern Africa and became part of an incredible and special event which captured the hearts and minds of all. Local Malawian musicians joined forces with British DJs – including Groove Armada’s Andy Cato – and made history with The Lake of Stars Festival which helped raise money for The Children in the Wilderness, an AIDS foundation.
This year’s festival takes place from the 9th – 11th September, again by the incredible Lake Malawi, with special guests Felix B from Basement Jaxx and turntablist DJ Yoda headlining.
Add many of the UK’s top resident DJs and a brace of Malawian music talent including Wambali & Ma Nyasa, Mabingu, Black Missionaries, Peter Mawanga & Amaravi, Real Elements and Tikhu Vibrations and it is again set to be an amazing 3-day music and cultural celebration, once more raising money for the Children in the Wilderness Foundation.
Tickets are still available for the festival and can be purchased in various places around Malawi.
Tickets are available from the following outlets:
Lilongwe:
· Harry's Bar, Old Town
· Denzel Gift Shop, Crossroads Complex
· Central African Wilderness Safari's, Bisnowaty Centre
Blantyre:

Are there special charter flights for this event?
I would be surprised if CC001 answers this questions. This 'advertisement' has appeared on several travel boards...
I emailed editors@fodors.com and hopefully they'll look at it, determine whether or not it classifies as advertising (I agree that it does given posting elsewhere and new user ID) and delete it.
Hello all
No special charter flights but Kenya Air are doing cheaper deals from the UK plus there is a competition being run by The Independent newspaper to win flights, accom and tickets to the event...
