Melt Festival is a curious concoction of Electronic and Rock that has thrilled festival-goers since the first back in 1997. Since then the festival has grown from 2000 people to over 20,000 people today. One of the coolest parts is the open air museum of massive machines that dot the festival area giving the whole place a cold industrial feeling. Past headliners include Bjork, Underworld, Oasis, Pet Shop Boys, Chicks on Speed and Michael Mayer.
