<a href="/tags/also-festival">ALSO Festival</a> reaches its final day in Warwickshire, concluding a thirteenth edition built around music, talks, comedy, food, workshops and the broad promise that ideas should be allowed to run wild. Set in a natural lakeside environment, the festival positions music as one element within a wider programme of curiosity and participation.
That makes it ideal for people who enjoy a concert but also wish to learn something unusual, attempt a workshop or listen to an expert explain why everybody has been sleeping incorrectly. ALSO’s appeal comes from crossing boundaries between intellectual and creative activity without making either feel like compulsory education. Bands, speakers, performers and audiences share the same temporary world, while the wild setting creates a slower pace than a conventional urban event.
The final day offers one last opportunity to discover music in between conversations, food experiences and encounters with ideas nobody expected to care about on Friday. Smaller independent festivals increasingly distinguish themselves by building a complete atmosphere rather than simply stacking acts on a poster. ALSO embraces that model enthusiastically. By Sunday evening, attendees may leave with a new favourite artist, three unusual facts and an ambitious plan to completely reorganise their lives after one proper shower.
