Here's the Friday, which I 'leaked' last week. Saturday is still a bit of a mystery, but based on the spotify playlist it'll be sbtrkt / kae tempest / squid etc

This is interesting, where's it from? The Rugby Club are offering parking but I was worried there wouldn't be an entrance from the south, but looks like there is

Looks like it will be here:

This is the planned layout, in case it's of interest to anyone. Match it up with Google maps if you want to work out where the entrance will be in relation to the town etc.

Clashfinder with some of the acts / stage times found on the website here: https://clashfinder.com/s/wildfields2024/

This was cancelled. Then re announced as a 2-day non-camping festival in Norwich with 2 stages. No bands officially announced yet, but going off the recently updated Spotify playlsit, Kae Tempest is the other headliner, with Squid and a few others to be added. A lot of the original lineup is missing from the playlist.

2017. Headliners; INmusic: Arcade Fire / Kings of Leon / Alt J / Kasabian Open'er: Radiohead / Foo Fighters / The Weeknd / Lorde / The xx BBK: Depeche Mode / The Killers / Die Antwoord Beni: Red Hot Chili Peppers + Biffy Clyro + Liam Gallagher / The Weeknd + Stormzy / Foals / Kasabian

A few years back I did INmusic --> Opener --> BBK --> Benicassim back to back without returning to then UK between, aged 30. Anything is possible! lol

Saturday seems to be the only day on posters / media to not state more to come, eg. https://www.bbc.com/mediacentre/2024/radio-1-big-weekend-2024-sunday-line-up There were 8 acts on the Main Stage Sat/Sun the last few years though...

Nicki Minaj is around, she could do a 1pm slot if they do that again...

Nice of the council to charge £11.50 for a space that would usually cost £1.50, that's half an hours walk from the festival entrance. Anyone used JustPark before? Does it guarantee a space if booked?

"... another big artist to be announced in the coming weeks" on the Sunday. I see JT has a week gap in his US tour. Any other guesses?

Nevermind, just seen it says "This booking does not guarantee the customer a parking space nor is a parking space reserved for or allocated to them. Parking is on a first come first served basis. Although such reserved spaces may be available at some APCOA car parks, these have to be purchased through a separate application process." Why bother pre-booking then...

Has anyone booked parking with APCOA before? Does it guarantee a space if you pre-book? There's 900 odd spaces at the airport train station parking a mile or so away..

weezer

Darlingside are a good addition.

They need to add some more white men to the lineup

Apparently the tape / paper that looks to be covering that 3rd headliner is printed on. Which is weird lol. I asked someone in instagram to try peel it off but they said it's printed.

Was thinking the same. Could be Gunnersbury Park or something similar though

...everyone is headliner to someone

Is it just me or is there nothing to play for right now?

Has anyone won tickets more than once over the last few months, on one account? I accidentally won Stormzy tickets when the website launched and haven't had much luck since, so only playing if I actually want to / can go to shows now.

Did Sleafords play in 2022 or pull out? Can't remember

Last time I camped was 2019, but back then there were sockets in the permanent shelter in the middle of the campsite where people took turns to charge sh*t. Never had to wait for a shower, or toilet. Swam in the lake every day. Outside alcohol banned in the campsite, but no one is checking if you filled a water bottle with vodka/gin etc. from the supermarket 15 minute walk away. Also the last year I went security were letting you walk across the bridge from the camp island to the festival island with a plastic pint glass full of whatever was in it. Went alone both times I camped and made some good friends both times. Would recommend. Felt safe to me, so few people camp you get to know everyone quite quickly. Feel free to ask more.
