Global Gathering is the UK's heavyweight dance festival kicking off at Long Marston airfield near Stratford Upon Avon 27-28 July.
Now we can give you a few tips: As well as superb shows coming up from Radio 1 DJs like Pete Tong, Dave Pearce and Sara Cox... there are a few extras to know about!
The Red Arrows are doing a show off flyover to freak you out, you can fly off yourself on a hot air balloon ride - or if you're more low key, get yourself a massage.
Now it's your turn. What should we pack to go camping at Global? What do you always take to festivals with you? What's your own tip for a guaranteed good time? Where are the best stalls and secret hideouts?
