The History of Music Festivals

DC Site Services would like to wish all of our staff a very Happy New Year!

We hope you're all looking forward to another great season working with DCSS at some of the best UK music festivals and events! The 2013 festival and event calendar is still being finalised, we'll let you know once that's online and you can apply via our news, twitter, facebook and our newsletter.

Whilst you're waiting for the 2013 event season to kick in, if you fancy having a read about the history of the live event industry head over to the PAAM festival staff Blog. PAAM's first post of 2013 looks at the history of music festivals - starting way back in ancient Greece!

I wanted to write personally to say a huge thank you to you and your brilliant team for all your hard work to enable to deliver, in such a short space of time, a wonderful Royal Windsor Horse Show.

When we started the planning, we honestly had no idea whether we could or could not run and had so many changes it must have made it almost impossible for your team – however as always they adapted and overcame the many hurdles that we presented, with a smile and a complete can do attitude and many people are saying that it was one of the best show’s that they have ever been to.

Everybody I have spoken to has said how fantastic the cleaning was and that the loos were immaculate, and the showground looked as good on the last day as it did on the first day – which is exactly what any organiser strives to achieve. Nothing was ever too much trouble and everything was delivered with a smile. Your cleaners were tremendous once again. Even with the date change and the added bonus (!) of COVID everything was delivered on time.
