I was just wondering has anybody on here been to shambala festival? I went this year and can say it was THE best festival i have ever been too.
If you havnt been you should really consider going next year!
Very diverse festival, mostly about the atmostphere more than the music. Alot of very very cool people and lots of good music!
You cant go wrong with people walking around with a plater of weed cookies selling them openly for £2 each..
What a great 3 days!
Post up if you went.

sounds like fun. What music is it mainly? The atmospehere sounds like a good one, but there needs to be some techno/trance/house/hardtek....

Well theres afew stages and tents.
Reggae tent (reggae and dub music)
A dome tent (Huge tent like a giant golfball, at night it gets rammed and they play more electronic music like trance, techno, dubstep, Drum & Bass and some dancy music.
Main stage (have alot of live reggae + drum & Bass bands playing instruments instead of decks and quite abit of music from around the world)

Then theres like a chillax area in abit of woodland next to a lake with huge nets in the trees to sit in and lots and lots of trippy images and lasers to look at (Amazing on acid at night)
Then dotted around theres like Sheesha tents, loads of food bars (everything u buy there is organic and doesnt belong to a coporate company e.g they dont sell cocla cola or anything like that)
Amazing festival i think its about £70 for an adult ticket from thursday to monday morning + camping.
