It’s officially summer and almost halfway through the roaring 2015 festival season (sadly). As we progress and make the eventual slow passage from summer to fall, there are a number of enchanting festivals laying in wait that deserve to be at the top of your shindig radar this year.

With more lineups being released every week, this list is only getting longer, too. We’re not mad about it.

In order to stay up-to-date on the biggest electronic events and festivals, we’ve compiled this list of 5 music festivals that you have to hit at least once in your life:

With 7 indoor and outdoor venues including a solar-powered UFO stage, treehouse DJ booth, and 7,000 square foot indoor club along with a lake, fire tower, 120′ water slide, ferris wheel, tie dye stations, community art wall, yoga, water volleyball tournaments, and more – Backwoods Music Festival will be an all-encompassing festival experience to make the soul rejoice. Oh, and did we mention that Infected Mushroom, ODESZA, Porter Robinson, BoomBox, Break Science, Dieselboy, Manic Focus, The Floozies, Wick-It the Instigator, and about 150 other acts are playing. It’s going to be huge.
