| As the summer gets under way all across the UK tents are pitched and the stage is set for a plethora of music festivals, from jazz to classical and from folk to funk, hundreds if not thousands of bands perform under the open skies to audiences from all walks of life. The most famous, or perhaps the most infamous, must be Glastonbury, it certainly has to be one of the largest and all encompassing festivals that has grown from a small gathering in a cow field to an immense leviathon attended by not only the best international artists, but an audience from the furthest flug parts of the globe. But it's not all muddy fields and dreadlocks, the soothing sounds of Glyndebourne's opera festival in an English country house near Lewes in East Sussex, has a pedigree going back to 1934 and is the setting for the London Philharmonic Orchestra to play a wide variety of classics, but with a slant towards the operas of Mozart. Many festivals are as oveable as the audiences with many upping sticks and moving as the winds blow them, notably Radio 1's "Big Weekend." The audience has grown up with visiting these pillars of an English summer, but as they have entered the mainstream workforce their expectations have grown with their salaries. What was acceptable 20 years ago is no longer, as many have become used to a soft bed, as opposed to a muddy field, and the idea of a, daily, shower in a room with a flushing toilet has become a luxury impossible to dispense with. With these in mind most, if not all of the festivals have provided parking and whilst it may not offer the convenience of a fully plugged in campsite, there should be enough water and comfort to last ot the longest of music festival in the UK. www.campervansdirect.co.uk |
