The 9 best festivals in Europe this summer

Choosing a festival to attend can quickly become a tiresome endeavour. One minute it’s all smiles as you happily navigate yourself through the summer line ups, excitement building with every name, the next minute it’s a nightmare.

Money issues. Friends dropping out. Artist cancellations. Artist outbursts (here’s looking at you Miss Banks). It can get pretty grim. Luckily for you however, we at Soundspace have decided to put together a collection of our favourite festivals throughout Europe this summer, in order to make that difficult decision a little bit easier.

The festival circuit is in outrageously good health at the moment, so narrowing the list down to 9 wasn’t easy. We’ve almost certainly left out a few noticable names, but we feel this displays a healthy combination of the notable and the underground.

So, who are you just dying to see? Ben UFO in Amsterdam? Or perhaps you’d prefer to indulge in a bit of grime in Barcelona? But Adam Beyer in Paris also sounds pretty appealing doesn’t it? Take a scroll through the following slides as some huge names, and beautiful locations, help you on your way to booking those flights.
