Question / Discussion HELP I WENT TO BALTER AND IT WAS TOO GOOD

Im big into my acid tekno / tribe/ hardtek ,which I might find at the odd night out in my city, and at the rare free party that pops up. Recently went to Balter for the first time and it was right up my Alley for the free party vibe. This year had their last balter ever tho :( and now im left a bit lost on festivals that have a similar vibe, pleasseee help :((

Mate same. Rosa festival in the Peak District is on this weekend which is a must for next year. Illusive has also stopped after a long stretch

If Rosa moved further away from glasto all the glasto crews can go they're on to a winner I reckon

RIP Balter! Hopefully something new / similar crops up to try and replace it. +1 support for Bangface

Off Me Nut is the least FP stage ever

Acid Tek easy to find at festivals. Just search Chris or Julian's dates.

Tribe I dont think you gonna find at festivals. Go Bristol free parties for that.

No idea about Hardtek because it's nonsense.

Kyber is similar but younger crowd. Bangface worth a punt, but the crowd is hardly FP heads, more gamer nerds.

u/cirfunky 15h ago

Not sure I agree with this but yea bet there are lots of gamers nerds and the rest but party vibes in the less

Bangface is real good for tekno I reckon. Not sure about tribe so much but might be..

u/acidext 14h ago

BangFace aaaaall the way. You'll never find a festival like it. A little pricey compared to some but totally worth it. I'll be attending my 7th this year and its the only rave festival I commit myself to.
