To finish off a great summer of music, head to Pukkelpop for an undoubtedly spectacular festival experience!
For years avid music fans from all around Europe have traveled to Hasselt, Belgium for a weekend that successfully combines performances by living legends and surprising new talent. Pukkelpop is not only held at a convenient location but also prides itself with a splendidly diverse line-up that in 2013 includes big names such as Kendrick Lamar, James Blake and The Prodigy. Not many festivals give you the chance to experience as many different genres on the same night as Pukkelpop does. A night at the festival features sets by various acts including rapper Eminem, American rock band Nine Inch Nails and London-based electric duo AlunaGeorge.
After releasing their third studio album Holy Fire, indie band Foals have had a successful spring of touring and they are one of the most-anticipated acts of Pukkelpop. Alongside The xx, they are due to finish the festival with a bang on Sunday night!
Pukkelpop has also gained recognition as one of the most Eco-friendly events so why not book tickets to Belgium now? The festival is set to take place 15-17th August and is guaranteed to satisfy the taste buds of music lovers of all sorts!
