Festival News: Oxegen hit by slow ticket sales, free glow sticks at T In The Park, Exit Festival prepares for Brit invasion

- Are festivals the latest extravagance to be hit by the credit crunch? Tickets for Ireland’s Oxegen fest, taking place this coming weekend, have failed to sell out and are going dirt cheap on secondary ticket sites
- While those who have shelled out for tickets can apparently expect rain at various points during the event
- Virtual Festivals have a handy guide to the long-sold out T In The Park festival which also kicks off this weekend
- Free glow sticks will be handed out at T In The Park, branded with the message “Partying Hard? Stay Safe” on them. That should do the trick
- Brits have started arriving in Novi Sad for Serbia’s epic - and probably largely dry - Exit Festival
- Don’t forget Lounge On The Farm is occuring in Kent this weekend - The Coral will be among the acts there, playing an acoustic set
- Staying with Kent - the organisers of the much-maligned Zoo8 Festival have issued an apology, blaming, um, their own inexperience and cash flow problems
