There will be three weekends in the run-up to Christmas that will be all about living it large at the nation's largest winter knees-up.

Loads of ZOO's favourite acts will be joining forces to shake Skegness in Lincolnshire to its foundations, for this is the site of The Big Reunion music festival in November and December.

The weekends of 20 November, 27 November and 2 December play host to 15,000 revellers wearing their shoes out to the likes of headliners Calvin Harris, Tinchy Stryder, Dizzee Rascal and The Wombats.

Britain's music tribes converge here, from the beery drum'n'bass of Pendulum to the comedy beatboxing of Beardyman, from legends like Judge Jules (below right) to man of the moment, Chipmunk.

It's fair to say that £159 for all that, including two nights' accommodation, does sound very decent. In fact, we think we'll go.
