How to read these numbers
- ERA5 is a reanalysis on a 0.25° grid (about 25 km): it counts slightly more light-rain days than nearby weather stations (by about 5–7 percentage points) and gives daytime highs about 1–2.5 °C below station readings, so real hot days were hotter than shown here.
- Edition window: the official programme days (main festival days, without camping or warm-up days before the start).
- For 7 editions the source lists a longer span (camping or warm-up days, a second weekend); we used the last 4 days, the festival's usual length.
- “Mud” means at least 40 mm of rain over the festival days and the week before.
- Dates of past editions: Wikidata and Wikipedia (de, en, fr, it, nl, pl); cancelled editions (e.g. 2020–21) are not counted.
