Ymuno Festival (July 1/2/3, Bryn Ffanigl Ganol Farm, Abergele, Conwy)

Here at Carpe Musica, we are rather fond of intimate, independent music festivals and we've found one that looks set to become one of our favourites.  Ymuno festival describes itself as a "chilled weekend of folk and urban funk" and has an exciting line-up including two of our favorite acts: Karima Francis and Just Handshakes (We're British). Entry is limited to 450 tickets, so expect up-close-and-personal sets from all performers!

What really sets this festival apart is that it's about making sure everyone has a good time - not how much money the organizers can squeeze out of festival-goers.  So if you're looking for a laid-back, friendly, low-key festival to go to this year, we highly recommend Ymuno (and with 4 tickets including camping and breakfast for only £200 you'd be crazy to miss out - ed).  With this in mind, Carpe Musica will be making sure it's the first festival we sign-up for next year!
