it is Sunday after all

It is time

In addition to the ones you listed there is also:

Global Gathering
Dance Valley

As for a website that lists all of them.. never heard of one.

Dance Valley
Sensation White (quite commercial now, but an experience none the less)
Extrema!!!!
And if you can...SEE DAFT PUNK...or anything at the Heineken Music Hall. The place rocks.

The other thing too is that we only hear of the HUGE parties here in North America. If you go...pick a few big massives you want to go to, but leave some room for other events. July is the beginning of festival season, and there's TONS of smaller festivals that go on EVERY weekend. And by small I don't mean, just local DJs, they have a lot of big names. The party itself just isn't the size of Dance Valley. Which typical also means that fewer touristy ppl from around the world go to those, and more ppl that know the music.

If you can wait till next summer, you HAVE to hit Ibiza. All the best DJ's on one island, you're guaranteed the time of your life... trust me!

here are a couple of sites I know:

Good for festivals, mostly ones in the UK and some beyond
http://www.virtualfestivals.com/

So-so mix of reviews (mostly Europe)
http://studenttravel.about.com/od/c...c_fest_eurs.htm

Good if you're into all types of festivals (international)
http://worldparty.roughguides.com/


my suggestion is hit up the open air parties.. I've had the best time at those (weather permitting of course). you should also consider on whether you plan on attending a 1 day or multi-day event since trying to find accommodations can be somewhat tricky if camping isn't your thing.

Dance Valley in Spaarnwoude was the best party I've ever been to. Hands down.
