Boom Festival Returns

Sunday, 28 February 2010 00:00

The Boom Festival will return to its lakeside setting at Idaho-a-Nova near Castelo Branco, Centro de Portugal, from August 18-26, 2010. Described by Revolve magazine as 'the most psychedelic of all festivals', the event offers a rich mix of art, culture, education and some of the best electronic music around at the moment. Bio-construction and bio-architecture are two of the main themes of this year's Boom. Solar generators will provide the energy and bamboo is being used for most of the structures. A ticket costs 125 euros for the entire duration of the Boom, with added options available for bus transfers from Lisbon and the After Boom wind-down party.
