Out with Styles Guide to the Best UK Music Festivals
BY Natasha Bailey ON 07 June, 2024
Festival season is finally here. With a diverse music season in the UK, Out with Style have rounded up their favourite music festivals across the country.
Glastonbury Festival
The crown jewel of UK festivals and famous for its eclectic lineups and unique atmosphere. Combining major headliners, emerging artists and everything in between, Glastonbury offers an immersive experience with art installations, theatre and more. With a weekend out in the fields of Somerset, festival style also comes to the fore. With the unpredictability of the Great British weather, this is where British icons such as Hunter wellies and Barbour jackets are styled with seasonal styles to drive the .
Isle of Wight Festival
Known for a relaxed vibe and picturesque setting, Isle of Wight offers a laidback approach to festivals. A long running festival, generations have stories to tell from here. An Out with Style favourite for the eccentric themes. With Summer Solstice the theme for 2024, we are already planning how we style our flower crowns with our weather-ready K-Way jackets and how our Elliker Sacoche will work with the fairy wings.
Green Man Festival
Nestled in the Welsh countryside, Green Man Festival encapsulates everything we love about the great outdoors at Out with Style. Known for its indie and folk lineups, as well as a strong focus on arts and culture, this is the perfect place to showcase your camping style as well as enjoy music and activities for all age groups. If you're heading to the Brecon Beacons this August, be sure to stock up on your Snow Peak gear so you can be the envy of the campsite while you enjoy your freshly ground coffee barista style.
Reading and Leeds Festivals
Whether you're going to your first festival or an avid rock music fan, the Reading and Leeds festivals are one to tick off your bucket list. Whether you bounce from stage to stage or committed to the front row, this year's line up is up there with the best. Just make sure you have all your essentials safely stored with you with a hand cross over bag as its a long trek back to campsite!
