They may not be the sun drenched, 3 day parties in the middle of nowhere – but they have their own beautiful charm. Don’t worry, you won’t have to brave the cold. Promise. Here are a few festivals we’ve picked out over the next few months that will more than satisfy your festival itch.

Mirrors Festival - 28th October 2017 - London

Dedicated to supporting the finest in forward-thinking music, putting the focus on audience experience, MIRRORS 2017 will make a welcome return to striking East London church venue St John’s-at-Hackney.

Masked Ball - 28th October 2017 - South England

The Masked Ball is a Halloween show like no other, alongside a surreal and strange sideshow of fairground follies, rock ‘n’ roll dancing and freak show craziness, inspired by the kooky, retro beach resort Coney Island in New York.

Dare to enter the immersive multi level party kingdom lavishly produced in a theme park where themed venues range from the outrageous to the downright spectacular. Expect a myriad of rooms, dance floors, dens, hidden bars, unpredictable nano-venues, eccentric humour and epic raves with a soundtrack of New York disco, primal chants, cosmic guitar licks and terrifying techno.

General admission: £50

This year's theme is Circus, which will see TWSTD hold up its distorted mirror to society, turning the resort into a weird and wonderful world of discovery and excitement.
