Description

Explore the evolution of the British summertime leisure experience with Music Festivals in the UK: Beyond the Carnivalesque. Published by Routledge as part of the Ashgate Popular and Folk Music Series, this book provides the first extended investigation into the commercialized rock and pop festival sector.

This study looks at a sector that attracts more than 3.7 million attendances annually and supports nearly 40,000 full-time jobs through music tourism. This text is an essential resource for those studying the economic and cultural shifts within the UK music scene. It examines how these events moved from niche gatherings to a mainstream commercial powerhouse, offering deep insights into the scale and impact of the modern festival industry.
