Default Outdoor festivals

Hi,

Does anyone know if the emirates holds any Glastonbury type festivals?

If not where would a nature/music lover have to travel to, to enjoy such gigs whilst living in Abu Dhabi. ?

A rather strange question given that the UAE is known to be an Arabian country following Islamic religious culture. However, they do have the annual Desert Rock and Jazz Festivals for those who cannot survive without their regular fix.
