Oxegenとは 意味・読み方・使い方

Oxegen is an annual music festival in Ireland held since 2004, sponsored by Heineken.
As of 2007, 2008, 2009, the festival has been cited as Ireland's biggest music festival.
And by 2009, the festival is cited as the greenest festival, being a 100% carbon neutral event in Ireland.
It was previously called Witnness, which ran from 2000 and was sponsored by Guinness. The event is promoted by MCD. Oxegen was originally a three-day festival but for 2008 was expanded to four days. It takes place at the Punchestown Racecourse in County Kildare, Ireland and has an average attendance of around 90,000 a day, with around 80,000 of these camping on site for the duration, and the rest travelling to the site each day. It takes place on the same weekend as T in the Park in Scotland and shares a very similar line-up each year, although Oxegen is generally regarded as Ireland's version of the Glastonbury Festival, with the 2008 festival sharing three of the same headliners as its English counterpart.
