Music festival guide 2015: Glastonbury, Wireless, Lovebox, Made In America
Summer is almost upon us which means it is time to dig out those wellies, stock up on the suncream and find your best flower crowns because festival season is here. All that is missing is the ultimate festival guide to make sure you do not miss out on all the fun...
The SXSW festival in the US is done and dusted and Coachella is well under way in California but if you are in the UK, the best is yet to come with Somerset's Glastonbury and London's Wireless festivals still to take place.
It can be a real struggle to plan a festival trip, which is why IBTimes UK has done all the legwork for you with this essential guide...
