  1. Last year was my first year arriving on a Thursday. We booked through the coach sale, so out of our control really. We arrived at around 5pm Thursday evening, and as we started to walk through the fields the stewards told us everywhere was full. 

     

    We ended up camping next to gate A. By the evening they had made the camping area bigger, with some people camping right next to the toilets. 

     

    Were the other fields full, or were the stewards just being told to say that? 

     

    There were plenty of campers coming in all evening, they must have been setting up somewhere. There seemed a lot more space allocated to staff/hospitality, especially near gate A.

    Four Tet, Fred Again and Skrillex self confirmed at show last weekend. Two of them were like yeah and the other (I think Four Tet) was like you can't tell them that. Not definite by any means but 3 big acts and the first post ^ wasn't definite either 🙂

    Skilled headlined the other stage last time he played. Wonder if they're playing together.

    This section is worrying. It was far too quiet at several stages this year. You really shouldn't be able to hold/hear conversations in the first few rows of any gig.

     

    West Holts was so quiet if you weren't in front of the sound stage. It felt like for some bands they only turned the speakers on for the final few songs. 

  4. This year will be the first time trying for Thursday tickets (coach). What are peoples experiences of getting setup on the Thursday? Which fields on the west (near gate A) normally have space?

    I would normally aim for Rivermead next to the Silver Hayes access bridge, or Dairy as close to Arcadia as possible. These are usually full by Wednesday afternoon. 

     

     

    Cheers.
