Festival season is fast approaching and those at Daily Star are here to help you out.
Grab your pals and get booking your best summer yet - with a choice of countless festivals up and down the country, there's no excuse for a plan-free weekend as soon as the warmer weather rolls around.
Pick from iconic bucket list multi-day events such as Glastonbury, Boomtown and Creamfields, to day celebrations like City Splash, Wide Awake and Field Day, to lesser known gems including Truck, Moovin and In The Park. There's something for everyone in the Daily Star 2025 festival guide.
The UK has it covered with every genre imaginable - and whether you're a fan of two-stepping to techno, body popping to chart beats or dancing to disco all night long, we've curated a comprehensive guide to help you prepare for a fun festival-filled year.
However, one element festival-goers may need to be aware of is the new disposable vape ban that is coming in from June 1. But don't fret, ravers will still be able to take in alternative options and will be able to get their nicotine moment with nicotine pouches from brands such as Nordic Spirit.
