Now running for eight years, iTunes Festival is a month-long concert series sponsored by Apple Inc. and conducted yearly in London.

It was first held in 2007, where tickets were given away for free to iTune users through localized prize draws.

Performers at the 2007 iTunes Festival-- like Mika, The Maccabees, Black Rebel Motorcycle Club and the late Amy Winehouse - performed at the Institute of Contemporary Arts.

In the United States, it made its debut this March with five days of free concerts at the Moody Theater in Austin, Texas from March 11 to 15.

A lot of bands performed in the 2013 concert including Coldplay, Imagine Dragons, Capital Cities, Pitbull and Zedd.

In London, the month-long iTune concert series was held at The Roundhouse, Camden Town last year, with notable performances from Lady Gaga, Paramore, Bastille, Thirty Second to Mars, Icona Pop and John Legend.

Other performances in this music event during the past years included Adele, Elton John, Foo Fighters Justin Timberlake, Kings of Leon, Lady Gaga, Katy Perry, Muse and Paul McCartney.

As of date, Apple has not announced the venue for the 2014 iTunes Festival.
