Unit 9. Festivals around the world

Last summer holiday my family went back to the UK and we went to a music festival on the Isle of Wight. It is one of the most famous music festivals in our country, which takes place every June. When we got there, I was impressed by the huge number of people. You know about sixty thousand people went to the event. We didn`t stay at a hotel but put up a tent in the camp site. It was lots of fun. We listened to a lot of songs by many bands such as The Killers and The Stone Roses. Guess what? We met Jon Bon Jovi. He`s my dad`s favourite singer. He and his band stirred up the crowd in nearly three hours with the hit songs. We also went to the Bohemian Woods, a beautiful woodland down by the river. There we enjoyed a mix of good music from around the world and escaped the busy and noisy festival for a while.
