Right then, as there hasn’t been any more announcements about further dates it looks like Arcade Fire – or ‘The Reflektors’ – will just be playing the five dates in the UK in November. That means getting tickets when they go on sale tomorrow at 9am (Friday 1 November) is going to require you to…

Bestival and Secret Garden Party go for the themed fancy-dress angle, All Tomorrow’s Parties goes for the ‘celebrity-curator’ niche while others try to differentiate themselves through more traditional means – location, line-up and price. In…
