After the two years of summers with no festivals, London’s most entertaining part of summer is back with a bang and bigger than ever. Most events last year got put on a major hold due to the unfortunate events of COVID-19, but as restrictions ease there becomes more and more reason to believe that 2022 will be home to the greatest festival season we have ever seen.
To begin the plethora of reasons as to why this year will be the best festival season London has seen, we have to look at the range of festivals on this year in London. Many people have been to the nation wide Reading and Leeds festivals but this year there are newer, more London based festivals ready to make your summer one to remember.
With events such as Garage Nation Outdoor Festival taking place in New Addington, bringing the community together to embrace the culture of garage music.
Wide Awake in Brixton is another event that will see people gathering from all over due to its range of variety featured genres: rock, pop, indie, and much more to engage a wide audience.
Possibly the most niche and the one people will be most excited for out of all festivals in London this summer is is Hospitality Weekend in the Woods which takes place in Beckenham Place Park.
Most acts will performing drum and base music this festival is a little bit more specific to a certain target audience, however the main attraction of this even is how it is held in a woods. Two days straight of festival life in a forest like area is something we have not seen very often definitely one you need to check out this summer.
Following on from individual festivals it’s time to look at something every festival this year are sharing is the passion every artist is bringing with them. After years of no events every musical is dying to get on stage once again.
From hip-hop, to pop and especially house and Drum & Base many European and American artists are being announced across hundreds of events all across London, showing the eagerness of the artists and the passion they are willing to bring on stage after a long time kept away from what they love
Last reason but without a shadow of a doubt the most important reason this year will be the greatest festival season anyone has seen will be down to the people. The audiences are more excited than ever.
The fans have been struggling to keep in the love for festivals and once they are finally allowed to show their passion once again there will not be any debate in saying 2022 was the greatest year in festival history.
