Sunday, Monday Happy Days, Tuesday, Wednesday…er…oh, only Saturday and Sunday are Happy Days. For fans of '80s funk, soul and boogie though, these might actually be the best days of the whole year, with this well-curated event boasting tunes galore. Sure the crowd may be silver-topped, but you can't argue with the legendary acts they manage to score each year. This is a festival all about reclining in a lumbar-supporting folding chair, kicking off your orthopedic shoes and chair-jiving to the tunes.
