Er... it's your 60th, so it deserves suitable recognition and if you want to milk it a bit, so there's more than one celebratory event, then that's absolutely fine. A birthday week or month is acceptable for such a milestone. Doing both things might work out for the best anyway - you don't really want people dragging themselves to a festival just because they feel they should, to celebrate your birthday when they don't really want to go. Party for that lot, festival for your chosen few I say. And some of the best laid plans come after having a smoke, so no problem there. -
Another vote for Bearded, albeit it is right at the end of May. Beardy is good if you like folk (I don't really, I went in 2020 and 2021 due to lack of alternatives and enjoyed myself but haven't felt the need to return since). If you do go, be advised it has its own (bloody freezing) climate as it is about 2 miles above sea level. (I may be exaggerating but I have never been so cold at a festival). I can't remember if you can take your own booze in but I do remember drinking some lovely Hobsons. I know you are based in Shropshire, so you could delay your festival celebration until August and come along to Farmer Phil's. Lovely tiny festival, though sadly doesn't allow your own booze any longer but beer is pub prices and admission is only £100 which includes a week's camping if you want to enjoy the Long Mynd before the festival. So I don't mind paying for my beer on top. -
The Cult at wolves civic. Seen them dozens of times but they were really on top form this year. Me and my wife had a meal and a few bevvies before hand and then sat side on , front row about six or seven seats along on the balcony right above Billy Duffy. Got us both a bottle of wine each before they came on. Just about remember the whole gig. -

Bearded Theory (though technically the arse end of May) is the closest thing to Glasto I've been to... -

Unfortunately I haven't got sufficient up votes for all of you who have responded above. The information is extremely useful to me. The above said, there is now a fly in the ointment. I mentioned to my wife, brother and mate, earlier that I had posted a request on efests about getting a suitable venue for my 60th. I also indicated that if any people on this planet that could guide on this one, that it would be all the folk on here. It was then that I was made aware of 'secret' already concluded preparations for my 60th. I am still very grateful for the suggestions made, and also still welcome any others. I say this because the suggestions so far are drool inducing. So much so that I may have to set up a rival camp for my 60th celebrations. I mean 'who's f'ing birthday is it anyway'!? lol I don't really mean that. I don't actually like celebrating birthdays, but 'experienced' what my wife achieved for my 50th, so thought it would be good to repeat it for next year' s 60th. That said, there's friends I have who have never been to a festival, and really ought to go before it's too late, and 'forcing' them to may be the only 'decent' thing to do. Mind you, that's all a bit fascist too, which is not to my liking. Anyway, I've had a smoke and sense hat I may be flying off on tangents. Thanks once again to those above. You may 'win' the day yet.
