The Best Music Festivals In The World
New York, NY (Top40 Charts) Music festivals come in all shapes and sizes. There are small indie festivals and massive popular music festivals. There are festivals dedicated entirely to specific genres of music such as techno or country. But no matter what type of festival you head to, music festivals are a fun way to listen to your favorite bands, discover new music, hang out with your friends, and meet new people.

Before you head to any of the following festivals, make sure you have a plan for which shows you're going to see once you're there, where you're going to sleep/stay (if applicable), and how you plan to spend your downtime. If you have a lot of time to kill and you're not too keen on socializing, read a book, catch up on your favorite TV show, or play some online games. There are plenty of exclusive creations online like Disco Divas or Robot Unicorn Attack. Once you've got that covered, don't forget to dress appropriately! (In the UK, that definitely means wellies.)

Here are the world's best music festivals to check out:
