ULY’S already seen Cornbury in Oxfordshire, Wireless in London, Scotland’sTInThe Park and
Lounge On The Farm in Kent, but thereare still plenty moretocome this summer. The term 'boutique festival' was vir-
tually invented for Latitude, which takes place between July 15-18 on the Henham Park Estate in Suffolk.
Derided by some as amiddle-class getaway,itremains hardtoargue with its blend of music, art, literature, good food and eco-friendly angle. This year Florence And The Machine,
Belle And Sebastian, Vampire Weekend, Laura Marling, EmpireOf The Sun and Midlake areamong the artists on the excellent line up. Visit

17 and 18 is the setting for Lovebox, which this year boasts performances from Ellie Goulding, Paloma Faith, Dizzie Rascal, Grace Jones and Roxy Music. Eclectic is the word. For tick- ets, visit
