Ben l'Oncle Soul at the European Festival Awards 2010 - by André van der Veen

The European Festival Awards were initiated in 2010 by the European festival association Yourope and the festival website Virtual Festivals Europe.[1] The awards are presented annually in January of the following year at the European music conference and showcase festival Eurosonic Noorderslag in Groningen, The Netherlands.[2] The European Festival Awards are aimed at European Festivals and their organizations, who make an important contribution to society. There are awards in 13 categories such as “Best big European festival” and “Best European festival line-up”.[3]
