Music Banter - View Single Post - Why do you attend a music festival? Line up or atmosphere?

Hiii everybody!

I am looking for your opinion about music festivals! The number of music festivals and the size of their audiences has been considerably increasing during the past decade.
EXIT, Sziget, Coachella, Melt, Glastonbury, Summerfest, Ultra, T in the park.. are just few big names on this continuing list. Some festivals are even sold out before any band names are announced. So people are already paying an average of €180/$240 for a 3-day festival ticket before they even know the lineup. This makes me wonder how you guys eventually decide which festival to visit.

Let me know, what do you think.. Are the character and atmosphere of a music festival more important than the line-up when deciding to attend a festival? AGREE or DISAGREE?

Thanks a million!
