Got back on Monday and just about in a place now where I'm starting to feel normal!
What an amazing festival! The site itself is an easy walk from Tisno and has 3 or 4 big stages all with different styles of music....from 6pm onwards the music is more full on but there is always a decent variety...music winds down at the site around 2/3am and then you have the option of Barbarellas which is a big open air club that goes til 6am each day...then back to the festival site for sunrise sessions with Apiento if you still have anything left in the tank from 6am-12pm (only made it to 1 sadly!). There are also 6 hour take overs each day from midday-6pm on the beach stage for those who perhaps didnt indulge as much the night before and are looking to chill by the beach and gradually work towards getting back into the swing....highlights here were Optimo and Luke Una. There are daily boat parties as well which add an extra element - you need to buy extra tickets for these but everything else was included in the initial price. I saw Sean Johnson, Apiento, Luke Una, Optimo, Chaos in the CBD, Paula Tape, Elias Mazan, Midland, Marie Montexier, Rosa Terenzi, Saoirse, Palms Trax, Gideon...it was very enjoyable! Sound etc all on point as well.
Tisno itself is a gorgeous small town with loads of restaurants and bars and little spots to swim...the locals were all really friendly and seemed happy enough as long as you were respectful - which everyone was, the crowd was super friendly and respectful as far as I could see....good mix of ages and nationalities too. Flights, accomo and ticket all came in well under what you would have spent on the likes of Glasto...a very different festival but great value all the same. I'll deffo be going back if I can next year.
. I am sure all will be well in the end.
through all again next year. Still, it’s always nice to hear your tunes played loud.
