In the magazine Festival Guide 2016

Featuring Biffy Clyro, Wolf Alice, Foals and more.

In addition to the May magazine this month, we’re once again bringing out a Festival Special in association with our pals at TicketWeb, featuring tons of bands who’ll be gracing the stages of your favourite fields throughout the summer, as well as a big long list of the places you (might) want to be.

We’ve got 20 (and 1/2) reasons why this year’s festival season will be Pretty Damn Good, plus take a nose around Biffy Clyro’s top secret farm hideaway where they’re preparing to take forthcoming seventh (!) album ‘Ellipsis’ on the road - including that huge Reading & Leeds headline spot.

Then there are Foals and The Maccabees looking ahead to their headline sets, Disclosure discussing putting on their own festival plus Wolf Alice, Chvrches, Years & Years, The Big Moon and loads more.

The guide is available alongside the magazine at many of our stockists (head to diymag.com/stockists for a full list), plus online by clicking the link at the top of this page, downloadable via our iOS app, or if you’d like a paper copy sent direct from us to you, below.
