I was able to find 14 lists. I took the 14 lists and added all their content into a spreadsheet, noting the rank of every festival. There were 31 that were on at least 2 lists. I ended up averaging the rankings each one got and dividing that average by a factor of the number of lists it was on. The lowest score meant a high ranking average on many lists. The complete spreadsheet is attached at the bottom.
The music festivals that were on the most lists (out of 14) were:
- Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival – Indio, California – 13 lists
- Tomorrowland – Flanders, Belgium – 12 lists
- Glastonbury Festival – Somerset, England – 10 lists
- Rock in Rio – Rio de Janeiro, Brazil – 10 lists
- Sziget Festival – Budapest, Hungary – 9 lists
- Lollapalooza – Chicago, Illinois – 9 lists
- Electric Daisy Carnival – Las Vegas, Nevada – 8 lists
- Summerfest – Milwaukee, Wisconsin – 7 lists
- Ultra Music Festival – Miami, Florida – 7 lists
