      Introduction

      Every summer the big name music festivals get more and more TV coverage, but why watch from the settee at home when you can actually be there and be part of it. One in ten adults now go to festivals regularly and if that doesn’t include you, then what have you been doing? It’s not just about the music...

It’s an opportunity to hang out with friends for the weekend, as well as a chance to make new ones. Take a short walk and there’ll always be something new to see or do – performance arts such as dance, drama, circus and poetry, or stalls selling animal masks, luminous moustaches and wood smoked
