Music festivals provide a space to connect, share arts, culture and traditions as well as amuse attendants in a spirit of social flavour.

There are over 300 million people attending live music festivals globally every year around the world (1). The socioeconomic schema under society is moving nowadays seems to connect and enjoy music, people and places in a more evolved way of living and a more easy going lifestyle. Cultural exchange speeds up in music festivals, share food, music, visual effects and dance eases the way to enjoy concerts and connecting with audience and artists at the same time.  Economic revenues derived from music festivals make these events a must in almost every country hence, it covers the need of open air, entertainment, fosters cultural exchange, adventure and discovery for community while at the same time value and contribute to improve the social and economic capital of a region.

Any brain needs a break and a reward after a long effort (academic year, tough project at work, stressful and risky profession…) a need for escape is the best way to break everyday hustle no matter what you do for life. Hive psychology is likely to be behind music festivals attendance. Community life within music festivals, happy groups of people and a feeling of belonging even if it is just for 3 days, highlight how important well  groups are united by music tastes are for us. The happier the groups, the better mental and social health for all of us. Other factors like tourism raise, revenue source, the variance of alternative and experimental music program on one side and the festival experience on the other hand triggers motivation of music festival attendees and countries as well.

Music festivals were created around in the 6th century BC. By then, musical programmes ran alongside athletic and strongman events in the first Olympic Games named Greek Pythian Games at the Sanctuary of Apollo, in Delphi (2). The Pythian Games were initially focused on athletic games, but it was initially dedicated to Apollo in representation of music. Further on, the Festival of the Vine Flower which included large drinking contests, performances held to honor Dionysus, dancing and music. This music festival pattern live long and extended through middle ages, adapting its competitions and performances to each place, type of music and also customizing some of its characteristics throughout the centuries.

Festivals were held to honour Gods, celebrate important events such as contests and strengthen the sense of unity among population in Ancient Civilizations. During the Renaissance and Baroque periods European composers and musicians started to celebrate concerts in public places, outside palaces and churches as well as performing open-air dramas with music (Passion Plays in Oberammergau Bavaria, Germany) back in early seventeenth century.

In the Nineteenth Century folk festivals emerged as a way to promote a sense of identity though dance and traditional music in outdoor places as well. The 1960s celebration of music, peace, love and unity made a big change after Monterrey International Pop Festival (California,1967) and Woodstock Festival (Bethel, New York, 1969), inspiring other festivals like Glastonbury (Pilton, Somerset, England, 1970),in the UK.

Many other festivals arouse after Woodstock Festival´s success (Newport Folk and Jazz Festival, 1959, Reading and Leeds Festival (Berskshire, Leeds, UK, 1971), Roskilde Festival ( Denmark, 1971), PINKPOP (Netherlands, 1970), Montreal International Jazz Festival (Canada, 1980),  Lollapalooza (in Chicago and other locations, 1991), Coachella (Indio, California, 1999) or Bonnaroo Music and Arts Festival (Tennesee, USA,  2002)).

Nowadays music festivals are a global social phenomenon  split in diverse musical line-ups music festivals in the western part of the world such as, Tomorrowland (Boom, Belgium), NOS Alive (Lisbon, Portugal), Summer Sonic (Tokyo and Osaka, Japan),  Rock in Rio (Rio de Janeiro, Brazil), Frequency Festival (Greenpark St. Pölten, Austria), Donauinselfest (Vienna, Austria), Sziget Festival (Budapest, Hungary), Hellfest Open Air (Clisson, France), Pol’ and Rock’ (Czaplinek, Poland), Rock am Ring (Nürburgring, Germany), Hurricaine Festival (Scheeßel, Germany),   Rock Werchter (Leuven, Belgium), Defqon.1 Weekend Festival (The Netherlands, Australia and Chile), Green Man Festival (Crickhowell, Wales), FIB Benicassim (Castellon, Spain), Primavera Sound (Barcelona, Spain),Governor´s Ball (Flushing Meadows Corona Park, NY, USA), Summerfest (Chicago, USA), Outsidelands  (San Francisco, USA) or New Orleans Jazz & Heritage Festival (New Orleans, Lousiana, USA).

Music festivals improve social health and well-being of any age range person as they lower down stress levels and probability of depression, personally and within a group since we share collectively music shows. For young attendees might be a first time to explore, travel and spend time with friends, for middle age adults it can represent a different vacation time. Whatever the prism with which you look at it, it reports a benefit to each individual and to the social groups attending as well.

Many music festivals count on other entertaining activities besides music, offering yoga sessions, gong baths and other oriental therapies and techniques to make you feel healthier. There are also massage rooms where you can apply many therapies to yourself and hiking tours in the surroundings of the festival field, as an intermission break between concert days (3).  Diversity can be found on a variety of food truck and kiosk food offer and normally local flavours can be tasted in this format. So if you like to try new food, this is another add-on to music festivals.

It is people who make places, not the opposite. At music festivals you will always encounter any type of people who misbehave or are not just the best company (the fewest) or, on the contrary, people with whom you will have a long friendship after the fest. As there is always a personal choice, be aware of your choices and enjoy the show.

If on a sum, you like to spend some days in a camp tent with friends (there are other options if plain floor is too tough for you, but is not as fun), entertain yourself at a high level, get to see many artists at a glance, get to know new people and make friends, while listening to the newest and best artists, feel free to stay dancing and singing until daylight, dress however you feel like and enjoy the best visual arts on stages, Music Festivals are the best option for you. From planning the trip till gathering with your friends at the music fest field, let those memories walk along with you forever as the nicest reminiscence tend to be the most unexpected.

Thanks for smiling and dare to live the Unexpected!
