Despite the unseasonably chilly weather, festival season is almost upon us. But with UK ticket prices soaring this year, some British revellers are having to choose between seeing their favourite artists in a muddy field and their usual European summer break. How about if you could combine the two without doubling your spend - or getting rained on? European festival tickets can be more than 50 per cent cheaper than their UK counterparts, according to experts at online travel agent Loveholidays. That means, for the price of a Glastonbury ticket, you could be picnicking on a Spanish beach before...

A pair of black-and-white feet are painted on the façade of the Giudecca island prison chapel in Venice. Responsible for the larger-than-life brushstrokes is Italian artist Maurizio Cattelan, who is showing the wall art piece now until November as part of the 2024 Venice Biennale. Although the 129-year-old annual art event attracts roughly 800,000 patrons per annum, according to organisers, exhibition commissioner Cardinal Jose Tolentino de Mendonca said Cattelan's work would be poignant to a particular set of viewers – prison inmates residing near the chapel. "It is a message that says: 'We a...

Pau Esteban was trying to explain the dangers faced by one of Europe’s biggest protected wetlands from the expansion of Barcelona’s airport when the roar of jet engines drowned him out. It perfectly summed up the battle which is raging between private ambitions to expand the city’s airport and public anger at how this may destroy a sanctuary for flora and fauna protected by the European Commission. Who will win may depend as much by decisions taken in Brussels as among politicians and locals in the Spanish city. The dilemma between private and public is one of the debates at the centre of Mani...

Fed up with inflated, inaccessible ticket prices, English recording artist YUNGBLUD is launching his own budget-friendly music festival. "Bludfest" is set to take place on 11 August in the Iconic Milton Keynes Bowl, which in the past has hosted the likes of David Bowie, and Green Day. YUNGBLUD, real name Dom Harrison, thinks that currently festivals are "unrepresentative of people" - so he’s fixing the price point of Bludfest at £49.50 (approximately €58). "It's like massive ticket charges, massive prices that most of the time aren't really going to the artist anyway," he said, speaking in a r...
