From the Wikipedia article
RockNess was an annual music festival which took place in Scotland at Clune Farm, Dores, on the banks of Loch Ness in the Scottish Highlands. The festival was known as "the most beautiful festival in the world" and "the only festival with its own monster" due to its scenic location at Loch Ness which is the alleged home of the cryptozoological Loch Ness Monster. Despite the festival's name, it was not a rock festival exclusively, often showcasing dance, electronic, and hip-hop music. The inaugural Rockness festival took place on 24 June 2006. In June 2008, AEG took over as the main promoter of the festival. The festival grew in size each year until its final edition in 2013.
