Scotland's biggest music festival returns for its fifteenth year, with the now customary array of big names, indie favourites and local wannabes



WHAT?

Every indie band and his post-punk, ironic influence descends on Balado for this three-day colossus, as well as most of Scotland's yoof. The Verve, Stereophonics, Rage Against the Machine, REM, Kings of Leon and a good many more are playing, making it an A-Z of pop from Amy Winehouse to the Zutons. Voted the UK's best major festival, this remains the big daddy of them all.

Festival frenzy: if you think boutique festivals are for posho wimps
