Mike_Diver by Mike Diver June 23rd, 2008

DiS's friends at the annual Dour Festival, Belgium - celebrating its 20th anniversary - have given us a number of tickets to give away to the four-day festival, held July 17-20.

Winners' tickets cover entrance to the festival only; you'll have to make your own way there, and take a tent if you know what's good for you. The festival is held near the France-Belgium border, and a map and information of how to get there can be found here.
