Hate to shut you guys down, but there are much better festivals out there. I really think the fantasy theme is a wee bit tacky, for what is a commercial EDM festival. And there isn't variety in the acts either. This year is the year of creamfields. No tacky crap, and a decent variety in the world of dance music. And pretty much anyone worth seeing, is playing.

Hate to shut you down Hayden, but here's no tacky crap on at Creamfields? There has always been a core element of tacky, high-energy crap at Creamfields and this year is no different. If anything, I think Creamfields has become more commercial as of late. The year of Creamfields was probably circa 2002.
I suppose it all depends on what perspective you're coming from though, of course.

Which is exactly what Creamfields is aswell, only difference is Tomorrowland sells out around 150,000 tickets almost instantly, and Creamfields doesn't. Tomorrowland is so big it's going to take place over two weekends this year.
Plus all the big names in house music are playing at both events, so I'm not sure how you can say Creamfields is better because of that either. Unless maybe you work for Creamfields? Or get paid to advertise it online?

There is tacky crap at creamfields. But its tacky crap with variety. Sure there's every EDM star that's ever existed, but there's decent acts in the smaller tents, and if you want an overall idea of where the dance music scene is going, its your best bet. At Tomorrowland, you get Big room house, Trance and Hardstyle, and maybe a small amount of Carl Cox.

Download doesn't look too bad now if you ignore the two main stages. I'd actually go if I get the chance, but Sonisphere still leads the way for the big rock festivals.
Creamfields again has pretty much every big name in EDM at the moment, but then again it doesn't have too much competition over here.
