I think Glade will have a healthy amount, although their license is yet to be granted (they've had problems with their application).

Bestival had a bit last year (Skull Disco boys, Mystikz, Skream & Kode 9), but they were let down by poor sound apparently.

less of an out and out festival, bit more like an arts or film festival, but a festival nonetheless

btw, has anyone organized open-air dubstep parties? i'm interested how the bass acts withou roof above its head. i.e. - aren't the losses of bass too remarkable?

i've tried sorting out a system for the last coupla years but always failed. The application has to be in really early (about now), which I missed in previous years, and since my friends have moved out of their Notting Hill pad I don't know anyone who'll let me stick a rig in their front garden.
