Se trata de una criba para determinar, en diferentes categorías, a los mejores festivales europeos.

Con lo que os gusta comparar, espero que voteis a gusto, malditos!!!
Yo paso, tengo que ver Redes.
Las categorías, en inglés, son estas:
Best Major European FestivalSome of the most famous acts in the world, tens of thousands of people and multiple arenas,
the largest festivals are a regular pilgrimage for many, and a rite of passage for most. But
which one is the best of the biggest?
Best Medium-Sized European FestivalNot as large as the giants, but by no means in their shadow, these events provide a more
boutique feel, and a more intimate experience. Many start life much smaller, but
have grown to this size due to their popularity. Who will pick up the prize this year?
Best Small European FestivalOften quirky and with the charm of a personal touch figuring heavily, the cosiness and sense
of community at these festivals is second to none for many people. This award celebrates
those who stick to the mantra that small is best.
Best New European FestivalOnce again, a handful of excellent new events were launched this year, bravely taking
on those with established reputations. Bringing fresh ideas, new music and alternative
audiences to the festival scene, which one have you already put in your diary for next time?
Best Indoor Festival (new!)Using the existing infrastructure of a town’s venues, this sector is growing because there’s
no need for camping, very little threat from the weather and they have ability to take place
at any time of the year. Sold either on a show-by-show basis, or an all encompassing
wristband, they give people chance to see multiple acts in the comfort of the indoors. Which
one had you ditching green fields for the concrete jungle?
Best European Festival Line-Up *Picking the right bill can make or break a festival – no mean feat when there are hundreds
of others trying to better you. Whether it’s about securing the biggest names in the world,
putting together some special collaborations, or just knowing what the audience wants and
catering to it perfectly, our judges are looking for the festival which has had the most vision
when booking acts.
Artist’s Favourite European Festival *The group of people that has a unique insight into the festival experience is the artists.
Playing in front of thousands of people as they travel from one to another, they probably
see more than most do during the summer. But which one do they enjoy the most?
Best Newcomer
It’s not easy being relatively unknown on a festival bill, but it’s a fantastic opportunity to have
thousands of people hear your music. With unsigned and relatively unknown acts, or just those who have been working for years with few chart hits on almost every line-up,
who shone brightest for you this year?
Best HeadlinerA remarkable performance by a headliner is the thing that people will talk about for years
to come becoming one of those “I was there” moments. To succeed, it requires passion,
energy, musicianship, dedication and creativity. Some acts may be regulars on the festival
circuit, but which one stood out from the pack?
Festival Anthem of the YearThe ultimate test of any song is how it's received live - and there's no better place than
at festivals. While thousands of great records have been lapped up by millions over the
summer, a few stood out as true classics, creating defining festival moments and were sung
all the way back to the campsite. Which was your fave?
Virtual Festivals Europe presents Promoter Of The Year *Recognising the festival organiser who has produced an outstanding event, overcome
adversity, or truly gone above and beyond the call of duty.
Yourope Green ‘N’ Clean Festival Of The Year *Recognising the highest standards of environmentally-friendly practices at a festival.
Yourope Lifetime Achievement Award *Dedicated to an individual whose personal vision and energy has propelled the entire festival
industry forward in a dynamic, creative and positive way.
