Skiddle: The UK's biggest guide to festivals

There's so many amazing festivals out there but it can be difficult to work out which festivals you're going to attend. There's so many things to take into consideration - the location of the festival, the size of the festival, the genre of music, whether it's family friendly and the type of facilities onsite.

Skiddle's new Festivals Finder is here to make the process that bit easier. Simply use the Festivals Finder's unique festival search, which include options allowing you to search for festivals based on filters such as location; month; genres; type; size; accommodation; amenities and even the artists you've liked on Facebook!

Pat presented his first daytime show 32 years ago for BBC Radio 1 at just twenty years of age back in 1982. Following a year on air, plus numerous ‘Top of the Pops’ TV appearances, he then went on to host mid mornings at 95.8 Capital FM for a decade. Along the way he picked up a gold Sony award whilst also notching up 7 hit singles and raising over £300,000 for charity as part of the infamous Stock Aitken Waterman duo ‘Pat & Mick’. He then took his mid-morning slot to No 1 again, as part of 8 successful years at London’s Heart, becoming the only presenter ever to rate No 1 on mid mornings in London on two different stations.

Pat Sharp presents the syndicated radio show ‘All The Hits’ which airs across the UK & around the world heard as far afield as Thailand & Taunton! Over the years his radio shows have also been broadcast on BFBS for our troops worldwide, along with in flight programmes aboard Swissair, Sabena, Britannia Airways & Oman Air.

After the most successful and talked about series for many years Pat emerged from the jungle after competing with Fatima Whitbread in one of the most gruelling Bush Tucker trials ever.
