  • The only place to catch all your favourite bands in one place
  • To experience the joy of camping
  • The Specials making lots of appearances
  • It looks like it’s going to be a nice summer
  • Pretty much guaranteed sun if your heading to Benicassim or another festival abroad
  • Blur are back
  • A chance to stay up all night in the moonlight (drinking probably)
  • Opportunity to meet great new people
  • And discover new bands you have never heard of
  • Radiohead at Reading & Leeds
  • Get a few well earned days off work
  • Take your mates and have a laugh
  • Be anti-establishment (kind of)
  • Pretend your at Woodstock in 1969
  • Oasis at Benicassim
  • Keep your writstband on as long as possible to show off
  • A chance to not wash without feeling like a hobo
  • Hear bands and artist perform new material
