Festival season might seem like a long way away, but we can guarantee you it will spin around faster than you can clean out your bumbag. It’s never too early to start planning for 2024 (who wouldn’t want to be dreaming of sun-soaked stages when it’s stormy outside?) and copping those tickets while you still can. 

We’d argue Brits do festival season better than anywhere else. The vibes are top notch, the quality is great – and the amount of musical variety on offer in this one little island is absolutely mind-boggling. You can glamp at a boutique indie festival, get some guaranteed moshpit action at rock fest Download or rave until the early hours at a 24/7 dance marathon. You could discover the hottest Welsh-language music, boast about how you somehow got tickets to Glastonbury or even surf along to the set list in Cornwall.

Keen to join in the fun? We bet you are. Check out Time Out’s guide to the best UK music festivals for 2024. We’ll be updating this page with more as they are announced.
