Anyone know a good alternative to Glastonbury?

[kittya]

I cant beleive none of us got tickets this year, after 12 years of going.

Does anyone know a good alternative festival, not too young mind!!

Have you tried Latitude festival? It's quite family orientated, with a Glasto-esque feel but on a much smaller scale.

I'd recommend that.

We have thought about that one. It is a child free weekend for all ten of us. I thought about Green Man as well but that might be too small.

Depends on what sort of music you like, but we go to the punk festival, Rebellion in Blackpool every year.
It is over 4 days, all inside the winter gardens with 200 bands over 5 stages.
It is really friendly, with a good mix of old and new bands

There are LOADS of festivals!
