Excellent :-) 

Was worried it would be too rammed for Frank, but if it's much bigger then hopefully won't be a problem! 

[ShorttyE]

I've not been for a few years.

 

Just looked at the site nap and a lot seems to have changed especially with there being two main bars. 

 

Is there still an excellent selection of proper ale and cider at the main bars?

There is indeed. I found a cheeky little 7% cider last year that was flowing like water all weekend. Thoroughly enjoyed it but had to check into rehab when I got home!

Was hoping The Quarry was an open air stage this year, Looks like that's not so.

I believe orchard pig are there from their twitter, though not sure if it's main bar or not. Definitely an upgrade from Somersby!

No, but it's a lot bigger

[BeddingatReading]

Site map attached if anyone wants to see it. Seems to have changed quite a bit this year

Y Not virgin here!

Where's the best place for camping then? We're a group of 5 mid twenties who like a drink and a laugh but don't want to be around absolute idiots. Im thinking Kashmir camping might be okay?

What time does stuff go on til at Gold City etc.?

Last year kashmir was at the top of the mental field where cans were literally flying through the air like missiles as I walked through, so I imagine quite noisy / annoying / dodgy at night. 

Im going for black dog or ramble on I think as we're arriving Thursday so hopefully can get in there

[Wilko888]

Does anyone know what the toilets and showers are like in the VIP camping? Big queues?

[TheDHolford]

So how are Black Dog, Ramble on and Quiet camping like? From the look of quiet camping there is a car park near by, where the campervans are. Or is Whole Lotta camping/Achilles camping better? Never been before, I'd prefer camping where it's not completely insane and full of idiots but don't mind some noise and parties!

[Pigeon Detective]

I think they've changed it all around quite considerably this year. We camped in quiet last year, it was just how you described what you are wanting.

Selling 2 adult tix with car parking and Thursday entry if anybody is looking. Face value, Selling on behalf of a friend who can no longer go

Itt's close now...

I will soon be eating Duck Fat Roasties once more!

Hi guys,

Does anyone know whether there's anywhere you can buy ice from at Y Not? First year going and I have seen this at a few other festivals - just want to keep my beer cold all weekend!

Cheers!

Not sure about ice as it's my first time too but I did see a beer buying system they have put in place.

You can say order 40 beers and collect different amounts each day and they keep it cold for you.

I don't think it's that expensive either.

THEY ARE INCREDIBLE!!!

Can't wait to have some again! My little boy loved them and asked for some when we got home, He wouldn't eat the ones my wife made him as they weren't as good as the festival ones haha

[Pigeon Detective]

Just bought a new shirt and a waterproof just in case. Hopefully means I've gone too early and it won't be needed. 

 

Oh, how exciting

PM'd you mate.

Going by the recent instagram story pictures, the quarry stage is much bigger. Should be perfect for Frank Turner on friday evening.
