A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

With the explosion of summer festivals over the last decade, an embarrassment of options now tempt the festival reveller. But which to choose? The Cool Camping Guide to Festivals is the brand-new, authoritative guide, offering a hand-picked selection of the very best festivals, both at home and abroad. Unlike other guides that rely on festival advertising or are affiliated with an event, this book is 100% objective and independent, telling it the way it is and only recommending the best of the fests. Festival veteran and entertainment critic Sam Pow (Time Out, the Independent) guides readers through the heady, hazy summer days and the crazy, cross-dressing, crowd-surfing nights, selecting the musical and cultural highlights from Britain and Europe. With in-depth reviews and hundreds of photos, this book transports you straight to the centre of the action; soak up the atmosphere of the main stage at Glastonbury, enjoy the simple intimacy of the Secret Garden Party or the fun and frivolity of Rob Da Bank s Bestival. Featuring interviews and insights from well-known luminaries including Emily Eavis and Franz Ferdinand, a festivals timeline and a guide to finding the best new music, The Cool Camping Guide to Festivals is a beautifully-produced, comprehensive snapshot of a rich era in festival culture - and succeeds in capturing all the energy and excitement of a great British pastime. Plan your entire summer from mainstream festival favourites The Big Chill, Rob Da Bank s Bestival, Glastonbury and Reading to the quirky Antic Banquet, IndieTracks and Festinho to the cultural delights of the Abergavenny Food Festival, Edinburgh Fringe and Hay and a side trip to Boom in Portugal, Electric Elephant in Croatia or Synch in Athens. Fifty fantastic festivals make the cut, each one offering a unique and unforgettable experience.
