Not going to Glastonbury this year? Can’t face the prospect of 50,000 little wide boys running around happy slapping you and nicking you lager? Well we’ve got the perfect solution. Europe. Yes, Europe has festivals too and we’ve scoured the continent in search of the best (and the ones we want free tickets too).

Heineken Openner festival in North Poland

It is dirt cheap for entry and camping for three days with the Sex Pistols, Raconteurs, Massive Attack with Chemical brothers to finish!! The beer flowing for a euro a pint or one of those extra strength extra large bottles within ten minutes of a lush beach. It all sounds good to me: Yes it does & thanks to Mr Tim for that great bit of info!! 

Roskilde, Denmark
3-6 July
1650 DKK

Having been to Roskilde a few years back I can honestly say it’s the best festival I’ve been too (apart from the shower incident. The festival is separated into different Agora’s or camp sites, each with a different theme. The agora’s surround the festival site and the parties begin the Monday before the bands start. Inside the festival and you are treated to not only the best bands (Radiohead, The Chemical Brothers, Kings of Leon, The Streets and Neil Young) but to some unbelievable food, the highlight being the cow that was barbequed whole by one of the stages, very few English people and lots of Danish pastries, you can also make money by selling empty bottles.

Pinkpop, Holland
30 May – 1 June
Tickets 129E –

Read into the name all you like, but this years festival is a non-stop roller coaster of top acts including Rage Against the Machine, the Foo Fighters, Incubus, Kaiser Chiefs, Editors, KT Tunstall, The Verve, Queens of the Stone Age, Counting Crows, The Hives…need I say more.

Rock en Seine, Paris
28^th & 29^th August
Tickets 75E

Where better to spend a summer weekend than in Paris dans la Domaine National de Saint-Cloud on the banks of the seine. Amy Winehouse, REM and the Roots are the pick of the bands and best of all you are not surrounded by barron wasteland, it’s 5 minutes to the nearest metro station and you can be wandering the streets of Paris before you know it. For an Other Side Paris Guide see our website.
