There are two things you need to know about next weekend. First of all, it’s a public holiday, so Saturday, April 28th will be considered a working day, followed by off days on April 29th, 30th, and May 1st. Secondly, that weekend is going to be PACKED with five music festivals all taking place in or around Shanghai. Here's what you can expect:

Dragon Burn

This year’s event will take place several hours outside the city at Tan Xiang Shan Village, and will be headlined by Mother Earth and GAIA. Note that the event is already sold out, so you may have to find some scalper dudes if you want to score some tickets.

When: April 29th, April 30th, May 1st
