Festival Season
Author: Emily | June 9th, 2010
It’s June 2010 and do you know what makes this the most significant month???? It’s the start of FESTIVAL season. Glastonbury, Wireless, Download, Big Weekender, Summer Ball, T4 on the Beach, T in the Park.
Sounds Good doesn’t it? I know exactly where I will be. This is the chance to go and Party in the open countryside, No music restrictions, No toilets!! just get with the vibe and rock out.
Festival Experience (I need crowd participation, Visualization)
You’re watching TV with your friends, Festival ad comes on you look across to your mates and you all get the look in your eye, Conversation goes a bit like this:
Simone: Wow Wireless Festival Lily Allen, Pink, Missy Elliott, (Wipes brow) Jay I mean Sean Carter!
Karam: Gorillas headlining Glastonbury, Emi (choke) Eminem is headlining T in the Park alongside Kasabian, Black eyed Peas, Calvin Harris & David Guetta
Ash: Hold on come again (Jumps up), David Guetta is performing hopefully with Sexy Fergie, Where, time, date?
Shona: Snoop Dizzle is going to be where (Big grin)?
Darren: I’m supporting the UK, I just heard Pixie Lott & Plan B are performing T4 on the beach
Simone: Ok so we all in?
GROUP: YES
Excited we jump online and you book your tickets for the festivals, (Sigh of relief)
Your overwhelmed with excitement that you Sofa surf over your mates in full preparation for the upcoming Festivals then it hits you………. What’s the weather going to be like?
This is the biggest problem that every Festival goer faces, the weather is predicted as Hot but for the last 10 years its hot but then it rains which causes A LOT of MUD! No one wants to get muddy and you don’t want your experience ruined.
Key Trend:Wellington boots are a must have this season and really do set off the festival
I can suggest a few key fashionable essentials (as we @ choice are all about the Fashion) so that you look the part & you have a FULL Festival Experience
• A pair of fashionable wellington boots
• Chino shorts/ Trousers rolled up
Now that you have all the correct ‘attire’ you should be ready to take a stroll and head to your ‘Festival’ repeat after me…..
Festival Swagger Convention
I , …(Your name)……am now certified Festi-swagger fresh, I aim to sing along to every song at the top of my lungs, Jump up and down, take pictures and enjoy my Festival experience and when it rains, pull out my Poncho from my survival kit, if I stay over I have my toothbrush & toothpaste, when my favorite performer performs use my Kleenex to wipe away the tears of joy, At night I will pop out my glow stick so I can be identified. When I try to sneak backstage I will put in my ear plugs and say to the security ‘Sorry mate, can’t hear you’
