INTO THE VALLEY, ESTONIA
Promoter Music Goes Further knows how to find spectacular spots for festivals, the Rummu quarry 45km outside of Tallinn being one of them. Acts like Marcel Dettmann, The Black Madonna, Jeff Mills and Helena Hauff play this edition, Into The Valley’s debut year in Estonia after previously taking place in Rättvik, Sweden. All with a backdrop of deep green nature and a decaying former prison in serene, crystal clear water.
Into The Valley takes place from June 29 to July 1
HOUGHTON FESTIVAL, UK
The grounds of Houghton Hall in Norfolk welcome the likes of Ricardo Villalobos, Sonja Moonear and Seth Troxler in August as Craig Richards and Gottwood present their brand new festival Houghton. Ravers will be spending three days in an environment of rich woodland and a tranquil lake, treated to longer-than-usual DJ sets thanks to an extended licence. Venues include an abandoned warehouse and subterranean bowl and there will be plenty of art and sculptures on show.
Houghton Festival takes place from August 11 to 13
OASIS FESTIVAL, MOROCCO

Yoga classes and downtime activities accompany house and techno acts such as KiNK, Anja Schneider, Charlotte De Witte and Richie Hawtin.
