+1. Hipsters have discovered craft beer, which has kind of killed the festivals for me.

Still occasionally go to a homebrew gathering, but those don't quite rise to the level of a "festival" and the quality of beer tends to be all over the board.

Probably the closest we get is a medium-sized art fair.

I've never done the big music festivals where everybody takes psychedelic drugs and sleeps in mud for 3 days. I suppose I'd do a classical music festival if I was in the right place at the right time for it. But I'd want, you know, a hotel room...
