Welcome to Episode 100 of my “Travel Tales From Beyond The Brochure” podcast.
This podcast is on Festivals, and as we’re coming up to the season where people are likely planning their summer, this feels quite pertinent. It came off the back of my episode from last year about Travelling For Music, where I got a couple of contribs that made me think a dedicated episode on festivals would be a good idea.
Topics discussed in this episode are:
- The weather in 2012
- The delights of camping
- My history of attending festivals (Off The Tracks, Cropredy, Barefoot)
- Music festivals in town centres
- Local beer festivals
- The Great British Beer Festival
- Volunteering at festivals
- The price and future of festivals
You can listen via the feed above, or via Spotify, or on your podcast app of choice. Let me know if it isn’t, by the way, and I’ll see what I can do. In addition, a PDF transcript of this episode is available.
As always, if you have anything to say about the topic, or indeed about my podcasting in general, leave a comment or let me know. I now have a newsletter you can subscribe to, containing extra content, and it’s where I’ll be mentioning future podcast episodes if you want to make your own contribution.
I also now have a Patreon! If you like what you hear, and want to access exclusive content (or just to show your appreciation), then head on over to my page and donate to me!
