LES EUROCKEENNES DE BELFORT 2008

Surrounded by the jaw-dropping aesthetics of the Malsaucy peninsula and accompanied with the soundtrack of some of the world's best musicians Les Eurockeennes de Belfort can feel like more like a weekend away than a festival.

Held on the first weekend of July each year the three-day festival has a diverse selection of acts from rock, metal, hip hop and electro to pop, reggae, latino and world music.

Marilyn Manson, The Hives and Arcade Fire all topped the bill last year so the 100,000 revellers can expect acts of a similar stature this time around.
