If you didn’t scoop up your Coachella tickets in time this season, don’t fret.  Here are 6 emerging festivals that you still have time to enjoy (and what to wear to each!):

1) Hangout Festival (May 15 – 17):  Party on the beach? Yes please.  Located on the Gulf Shores of Alabama, this fest features 3 days of music across 6 stages and over 70 bands including Foo Fighters, Sam Smith, Zac Brown, Skrillex, Foster The People, Paramore, Phantogram, Tove Lo, Vance Joy, and Cold War Kids.

2) Bottle Rock (May 29 – 31):  This 3-day concert combines 3 of our favorite things–music, wine and food.  Only in its third year, this quaint festival nestled in the heart of the Napa Valley lets you tour local vineyards, taste from California’s best restauranteurs and take in live shows by Imagine Dragons, No Doubt, Passion Pit, Cage the Elephant, Capital Cities, Portugal The Man, American Authors, ZZ Ward, Tristan Prettyman, and Scott Weiland.

3) Governors Ball (June 5-7):  Gov Ball gives New Yorkers a chance to escape the island of Manhattan by ferry for a much more secluded spot–Randall’s Island.  Here, the fest takes over offering a wide variety of music and food trucks in addition to ping pong and lawn games. This year’s line-up includes: Drake, The Black Keys, Lana Del Rey, Florence & The Machine, Bjork, Ryan Adams, Chromeo, St. Vincent, Weird Al, Charli XCX, and Deadmau5.

4) North by Northeast (June 17-21):  Many know it’s southern counterpart (South by South West), but NXNE–located in Toronto–actually got its start back in 1995 focusing on indie artists and Canadian up & comers.  Showcasing bands in over 50 downtown music venues, American performers are heading north to participate, including: Action Bronson, Best Coast, Ty Dolla $ign, Angel Olsen, Glass Animals and Kate Tempest.

5) Electric Daisy Carnival Las Vegas (June 19-21):  It’s namesake dates back to the rave-craze of the early 90s, but this EDC event in Las Vegas just kicked off in 2011 and already draws over 350,000 people each year.  For EDM lovers, this party features sets by the world’s top DJs, like Diplo, Steve Aoki, Afrojack, Alesso, Tiesto, Krewella, Chromeo, Paul Oakenfold, and Avicii.
