[edit] Organisation
The Jersey Live Festival has been organised by Warren Le Sueur and Warren Holt[1] since 2004. In 2006, there was a huge demand for tickets and subsequently, Positiv applied for licensing permission for an extra day for the festival. In 2010, the event sold out for the first time since being granted a 10,000 visitor capacity.
