Last week was the Glastonbury festival in UK, held annually in Somerset in South West. It's one of the largest outdoor music festival, famous for its muddy ground and camping sites. The recent festival attracted nearly 180,000 music lovers, watching hundred of acts played on over 80 stages.The small equivalent in Holland is the park pop festival in our city here. It is free though, grown over the years to become one of the largest free pop festival of Europe. As dictated by tradition, it is held on the last Sunday of June and this year is its 29th edition.
What is unique for this festival is the non-sale of alcohol and the family atmosphere. It has also become a festival with an international presence with thousands of visitors, And a junior edition is even held the day before: called the Kinder or children Parkpop!
