At the beginning of lockdown you probably thought that, by July, you'd have your beloved festivals back. You imagined yourself in a field somewhere in the UK, listening to your favourite artists by day and ending up face down in the mud by night.
Sadly, this is not the case. But while all IRL festivals might be cancelled, this weekend Junction 2 – the house and electronic festival usually held in London's Boston Manor Park – is hosting an entirely digital event, J2v Virtual Festival, which you can enjoy from the comfort of your own home.
