One thing all Europeans can agree on is how much we love a music festival. From mammoth, week-long sites of pilgrimage to smaller boutique events in second cities from Graz to Ghent, the European festival scene is in rude health, with new events being added each year.
Of course, while we might be united in our passion for live music, the very nature of competition in a common market means that co-operation between organisers and promoters, can be, at best, limited. Aiming to tackle this issue head on is We Are Europe, a three-year initiative that brings together eight festivals from around the continent in the spirit of cultural exchange.
