How DnB heavy?

[sashabella]

Morning,

 

I hope everyone is enjoying the festival period. It’s almost over so time to think festivals!

 

I’ve always fancied Boomtown, but I’m definitely not into DnB, I’m more of an indie girl, but love a dance to House. 
 

It’s my 50th next year and need to find a festival as Glastonbury isn’t on. Already have Truck tickets with the family, but need an adults only one too. 
 

Line up is looking pretty decent so far. Saw Kneecap twice this year and they were amazing. 
 

I guess my question is, how DnB is it?

 

Thanks 🙂

Just spotted this thread!

You will be fine honestly - there are about 50 stages, maybe 10-20 are dnb. Around half of the largest 10 are dnb perhaps, maybe not even that.

 

There's a real mix of stuff - definitely get tickets you'll have a blast! Its just as good as Glasto imo

It's my 50th this year too and have got tickets for my first Boomtown after the initial line up came out. I've read that there's not as much dnb as previous years, and plenty of stages so can always find something u like. Four Tet was my highlight at Glastonbury 25 so can't wait to see him again. Floating points, Skrillex and some decent live acts already announced. Big Special, less than Jake and Skindred are guaranteed good times! I say go for it! 😀

Nothing to add, I just wanted to mention that I too will also be 50 at Boomtown 2026. Am now, in fact.

Thanks all. Just need to convince my friends now!

There was people complaining last year that there was too much house and not enough DnB, similarly there was a lot of people complaining there wasn’t enough DnB and there was too much house.

 

Basically there’s a lot of everything
