The Green Man Festival

If you like bands like Animal Collective, Jarvis Cocker and Wilco, probably It’s time to get your ticket for the hippiest festival around Wales these days. Glanusk Park is the scenario and the new surprise for this year is the ‘Einstein’s Garden’, which will introduce thought provoking green issues in a fun and informative way.

Sustainable living, environmental consciousness, Music and Arts have become central to Green Man Festival and that’s exactly the reason why I’m attending this year. Surrounded by the River Usk, Glanusk Park is set in over 20,000 acres of rolling parkland in the heart of the Brecon Beacons witnessed a non-corporate and ethically-minded festival. Ahhh…. Yes I’ve booked my tent too. This is going to be fun.
