A Campingflight to Lowlands Paradise
Encyclopedia
A Campingflight to Lowlands Paradise, also known as simply Lowlands, is a music festival
, held annually in the Netherlands
in August. Lowlands has about 55,000 visitors, over 200 acts and more than ten stages every year which are named according to the NATO phonetic alphabet
apart from the Grolsch stage (named after the beer brewer Grolsch who has been the main sponsor of the festival for the last few years). The majority of stages are inside huge tents - insurance against the Dutch climate - with the main stage's tent, Alpha, being approximately the size of a premiership football team's pitch.
The festival is held in Biddinghuizen, at Spijk en Bremerberg, very close to the Walibi Holland amusement park
.
Besides music (alternative music, pop
, rock
, dance, hip hop
), there is also an indoor and an outdoor cinema
, stand-up comedy
, street theatre
and theatre
.
Utrecht
. The entry fee was 10 guilders (approximately 4.50 euros), including breakfast. This 18-hour-long event had no top-acts but included experimental theatre, dancing, poetry, films, body painting and massage. The Utrecht municipality did not pay up the promised subsidy of 8,000 guilders after the event.
On 28 December 1968, the festival was held a second time, postponed by a month from its original date of 23 November to try to get Jimi Hendrix
to attend the event. This could not be arranged, and other large acts such as Jeff Beck
and Jethro Tull
were cancelled. However, Pink Floyd
remained on the bill. In the end, the show was sold out to its capacity of 18,000 visitors, and for many people it was a cold and disappointing experience as they were unable to get inside. Inevitably, there was unrest and the police had to be involved.
In 1993, organizer Willem Venema began another festival under the name A Campingflight to Lowlands Paradise.
Life of Agony
released a CD of their unplugged set from the Lowlands Festival in 1997, entitled Unplugged at the Lowlands Festival '97
