Rocking The Daisies 2016: an Instagram photo story

This year’s edition of Rocking The Daisies has come and gone.

Was it the best ever? That’s up for you to decide. But either way, you’ll have to wait until October 2017 to get your Darling fix again.

But for us who didn’t have a chance to hit the festival this weekend, at least Instagram is a great way to see what we’ve missed. And it seems that we’ve missed quite a lot.

Supported by the photo sharing app’s fairly frequent usage at Rocking The Daisies this weekend, we’ve put together a little photo story, detailing the highlights from Darling.

Picking your spot is probably the most difficult choice of the weekend…

Our view, the set up, day one. #latergram #Rtd #rockingthedaisies

…drink in the colours…

To losing friends and finding new ones. We walk away with memories. #rockingthedaisies#RTD2016#missions#party#bodydamage

Or just take some time to chill.

The final stretch 🌼🌼🌼. #RTD2016

But when night falls, and the music starts to play, you’ll be up front singing along.

Perhaps snap a selfie with Grassy Spark.

When @grassyspark call you on stage to take a quick photo… yeah so chilled. Didn’t freak out at all… 😱 #SxRTD2016 #RTD2016 #MainStage

But when the sun sets, and it’s finally time to leave, one last shot of the sunset is all you need.
