The basics
Dance, rock, indie, pop. This Belgian fest has it all.
The festival
Lokerse Feesten. It's in Bracknell. Just kidding! It's in Belgium of course, and it comes with a range of music more eclectic than Lady Gaga's mad wardrobe. With dance, hard-rock, indie, pop and soul all represented, it's like a United Nations of festivals, except without Tutankhamun, or whoever's running the UN at the moment. Maybe Bob Geldof.
Our tip
If you put a whole packet of Mentos in a bottle of Diet – and only Diet – Coke then it will fizz up like a soft drink fountain for about twelve seconds. It can reach up to three metres in the air and is amazing.
