Arguably the Northwest’s most outrageous festival, the infamous Beat Herder returns next week for her 14th year. And we are beyond excited to be attending this year being close to our home town in the North west its at atrocity that we haven’t attended before!, we have only heard great things about this festival and im sure it won’t disappoint, from what we have seen it looks like a mini Boomtown full of creativity and positivity with great music and even better vibes. Built on unconditional love and the tireless efforts of many. From plants grown from seed, hand painted signs and flags, this years fancy dress with the fantastic letter R , the detail and creativity is endless. As always the creators aim to push these boundaries further, and excitement is building as the hours pass. This summer’s festival offers an amazing caliber of talent.

Map of Music Festivals in Europe

With literally thousands of European music festivals every year wouldn’t it be great if we had a map of all of the music festivals in Europe, to show us what was available. We enjoy most of these music festivals during the summer months, maybe with some hope that during this time we will get some nicer weather.

However, most of the music festivals do take place during the small space of time between May to September and they are scattered all over Europe, you probably don’t even realise just how close many festivals are to you, and how many you could fit in during that time.

Get free music festival tickets by volunteering

Many people don’t know that you can actually get free music festival tickets by volunteering to help out. There are a few charities where you can volunteer to give your time do your bit for humanity helping the charity out and in return, you gain entry to the festival for free and in most cases you don’t even need experience. As you may know, music festivals take a great deal of work to put together and a great deal of staff, and because its pretty hard to turn a profit with festivals organisers often call on volunteers to help out and you get free tickets, staff benefits or other discounts. It’s a fantastic way to become part of the music community, learn how festivals are put together, meet new people, learn new skills and get time off to watch your favorite bands or DJ’s live. Where can you get free music festival tickets by volunteering? Oxfam Oxfam always have a number of positions they are looking to cover Stewards Campaigners Festival shop volunteers Looks like they are finished with festivals for this year but you can register your interest for 2018 It’s good to apply now for next year, as […]
