Music Festivals, Concert Tours Website Designs
Some huge summer concert venues, totaling crowds in the thousands, if not millions all combined…
You would think they would have brilliant websites. I’ve found some of the best websites for 2008 summer music festivals I could find. The criteria was the concerts were music festivals and not just a single recording artists concert tour website, those may make another post.
Some of the websites have a more complete and interactive feature set than others, anyways here’s the current list, if you have any recommendations of hot summer music concert event websites, add the link in the comments section so we can all have a look at it.
