MacRumors reports today that Apple has once again kicked off festivities for its annual London iTunes festival. Not the festival itself, you understand, that doesn’t get going until September 1 (it’s been moved from its usual spot of July this year, maybe because of the Olympics in London) but an updated version of the annual free festival app has just appeared in the App Store, and the first acts to appear have already been announced, and pretty spectacular most of them are too, with the whole shindig kicking off with Usher on September 1, Emeli Sande on September 5, Jack White on September 8, Norah Jones on September 10 and One Direction on September 20. All gigs take place at London’s legendary Roundhouse in London, and all are free to enter, but you have to be lucky enough to win a ticket by applying either in-app or on one of the websites below. We certainly are lucky to have this amazing festival in the UK, and to get to see incredible acts for free in a great venue, but you don’t have to be in the UK to enter, as fans from Ireland, France, Germany and the Netherlands can also take part in the lottery. The app will also stream live videos of the shows, as will iTunes. It’s always worth entering, you have a great chance of being lucky, I remember one year I got to see N.E.R.D and Jay Sean!
