The Music Festival season is officially here, marking the beginning of a season of great venues, fun clothing and lots and lots of good music. Music festivals have been the best way to see most of our favorite performers in a lively atmosphere. With more than 50 international music festivals happening every year, each with its exclusive line of artists and performers, it can leave us questioning with which ones are actually worth visiting.

Here is a run-down of the biggest and the best of music festivals all around the world:

1. Coachella

By far the most popular music festival in the world, Coachella is the perfect for sun-loving alternate music fans with hippie vibes. With popular performers like Rihanna, the Kardashians and Vanessa Hudgens, the festival is often called a Woodstock revival and marks the beginning of the music festival season. Held in the sunny desert valley of Indio, California, it is scheduled for April 15th this year with Guns n’ Roses, Calvin Harris, Ellie Goulding, Sia, Disclosure and many others performing in the 3 day event held for two consecutive weeks. Coachella is also highly covered by the media for its own style culture — focused around hair accessories and body art.

2. Glastonbury

The biggest music festival in the UK, Glastonbury caters to all musical preferences, and unlike other festivals, is popular for being more family friendly. It is one of the oldest, and one of the most renowned music festivals around the world and offers a wide range of genres and artists of all levels. Held in Somerset, England, the festival this year is to be held from June 22nd to June 26th and has the likes of Coldplay, Adele, Ellie Goulding, Disclosure, the National Symphony and Bastille in its lineup so far.

I think the hardest thing about going away to college is figuring out how to become an adult. Leaving a household where your parents took care of literally everything (thanks, Mom!) and suddenly becoming your own boss is overwhelming. I feel like I'm doing a pretty good job of being a grown-up, but once in awhile I do something that really makes me feel like I'm #adulting. Twenty-somethings know what I'm talking about.

I went to a small high school, like 120-people-in-my-graduating-class small. It definitely had some good and some bad, and if you also went to a small high school, I’m sure you’ll relate to the things that I went through.

1. If something happens, everyone knows about it

Who hooked up with whom at the party? Yeah, heard about that an hour after it happened. You failed a test? Sorry, saw on Twitter last period. Facebook fight or, God forbid, real fight? It was on half the class’ Snapchat story half an hour ago. No matter what you do, someone will know about it.

Chandler Bing

I'm assuming that we've all heard of the hit 90's TV series, Friends, right? Who hasn't? Admittedly, I had pretty low expectations when I first started binge watching the show on Netflix, but I quickly became addicted.

Working with the public can be a job, in and of itself. Some people are just plain rude for no reason. But regardless of how your day is going, always having to be in the best of moods, or at least act like it... right?

1. When a customer wants to return a product, hands you the receipt, where is printed "ALL SALES ARE FINAL" in all caps.

2. Just because you might be having a bad day, and you're in a crappy mood, doesn't make it okay for you to yell at me or be rude to me. I'm a person with feelings, just like you.

3. People refusing to be put on hold when a customer is standing right in front of you. Oh, how I wish I could just hang up on you!
