European Prog Festivals: Rolling Calendar

Welcome to a new initiative I am very proud to introduce to the Events forum! I have collated a rolling calendar, including all the basic details of many of Europe’s premier, annual Prog festivals, together with a weblink to their respective homepages, and Myspace pages.

It is my intention that this list will be continually added to and updated as an ongoing process, in order that it might become a reliable and comprehensive ‘one-stop’ source of information on all Prog festivals throughout Europe during the year.

In order for this to succeed of course, it goes without saying that I will need the help of you all. Firstly, despite the wonderful aid of the Worldwide Web, I am sure you will understand that I have a greater knowledge of the Prog scene here in the UK than I do about the scene around the foothills of Transylvania. I would therefore request that if I have missed out the details of a great festival near to you, that you add a post to this thread.

Secondly, many of the initial festivals listed are for more mainstream Prog, as opposed to RIO/ Avant Garde/ Kraut/ Canterbury and so on. Whilst I apologise for this omission, I would also be grateful if fans could post relevant details, below, to enable me to construct a more comprehensive festival guide.

Finally, once this concept has been established, it is my intention over the following weeks to create festival quick-link guides for other regions of the world, until ultimately we have all bases covered!!

Many thanks to you all, and Best Wishes

Help Us To Help You!

You could help us by providing our members with brief, regular updates on festival details, bands booked etc, by starting a thread, and adding to it, as news comes in. Naturally, the more often your thread is added to, the higher the festival’s profile will become as it is bumped up the page.

After the event, we would love you to either post a review with some pictures or provide a Weblink, which in turn may attract more attendees next year!
