The True Story
of 6 ‘Typical’
Festivalgoers
Festival season — that time of year when beer
flows freely from makeshift taps into clear
plastic cups, and tanlines grow upon us like
zippers on Michael Jackson’s jackets — is
upon us. Each year’s summer brings with it
more and more choices. Which festival should
you invest a few hundred of your hard-earned
dollars in? HuffPost is here to help.
Should you dance with the young’uns at
Electric Daisy Carnival or fashion yourself an
art car and head to Burning Man? Does indieshuffling with hipsters at Lollapalooza make
more sense than getting a good dose of real
hip-hop at Rock the Bells? Or does a circuit
party offer the best bang for your buck? Take
a look at the options to the right, and, no
matter what you decide, remember to wear
sunscreen. – Kia Makarechi
