NME has become a truly unique multi-platform media proposition. Festival coverage is the lynchpin of NME's summer editorial schedule, with coverage of Glastonbury and Reading/Leeds producing traffic spikes higher than those generated by the NME Awards. NME.com is the place that UK music lovers and festival goers keep up to date with festival news, previews, reviews and information of the summer months. The festivals section exists as a stand alone property yet the partnership permeates across the site, particularly through news, video and photo galleries.
