Krankenhaus Festival, organised by alternative rock legends Sea Power, is part of a growing trend of microfestivals across the UK. With larger festivals seemingly interested more in maximising profits than fan experience, more people are looking elsewhere for a weekend away. While thousands packed into fields in Reading, Daresbury and East London, around 800 travelled to the Lake District for their live music fix, attracted by a unique lineup, activities including bird watching and steam train journeys, and a picturesque location.
