Arcadia it is. Maybe even the odd secret set. Agree with the above, it’s going to be rammed and Arcadia ain’t the best unless you’re close to the spider. Pangea was better in that regard.

It's the layout that gets me - it seems so open and sparse.

Late one so had to pull an all nighter, didn't trust myself to wake up. Good luck everyone!

Done & bump. We're nearly there 😊

Nail on head.

Maybe I’m imagining things but I could have sworn he came out and drummed for a least a song or two. Google tells me he did at Glasto the year prior.

I'll be gutted if QOTSA clash with Elton. I know it's the most likely but I'll be praying to the music gods that they're before Elton and Nas gets the other headliner instead. The last time I saw QOTSA was at Slane Castle in 2003 - followed by the Foos and the Red Hot Chilli Peppers (Dave Grohl came on to drum for his Songs for the Deaf tracks). What a gig that was.

Its mental. Land of opportunities, that is, unless you're a service worker where you'll get paid a God awful wage which society is then expected to supplement under the guise of some sort of patriotism. How about just enforce a proper minimum/living wage.

Delighted to see OR:LA in there, she puts on a great set

Slightly leftfield with this one but this pic encapsulated the very best of this forum and the community spirit that sits at the heart of festival. 3 years of waiting for @Crazyfool01, one of the most dedicated of all Glasto goers, unsure if he would be there for the eventual post vivid reopening. Then resale day finally arrives and we’re greeted with this gem! Honestly, this image made my week, I was absolutely delighted!

Map time? 😁

I'll also add that there's probably going to be a lot more "secret" resales now too (if this gets rolled out across the board for next year)

This 100%. That said, that might also shift the balance towards communities like this too. Either way, without having payment required to hold a ticket, anyone with influence over a large following or otherwise is going to have a better chance than the average person. That doesn't make things fairer in my eyes.

Maybe I should have been less specific, you often hear of people from the UK heading to Coachella but I’m not sure how often the reverse is true… hence why I was wondering what they’d think if they went to a festival where you didn’t have to drink in a designated zone

There’s often Glasto goers who travel from this side of the globe to try Coachella but do we ever get the Coachella people coming this side for Glastonbury? I suspect those who do get a big surprise when they find out they can watch their favourite artist AND have a beer at the same time. A wild concept.🤯

Our tried and tested Irish strategy will be rolled out again for 2023! Monday: most of the convoy depart from Dublin early morning and set sail for Holyhead. A nice drive down the country with our favourite tunes should land us into Bristol just in time for a decent feed and “few” brews going into the night. Tuesday: Time to do the essentials shopping and pick up the rest of our people who fly in that evening. Excitement levels nearing max out at this point. Wednesday: An early start should have us on the farm for 4-5am and sure we all know how it goes from there! 🕺💃

Living in Ireland, I grew up watching Glastonbury every summer on the BBC. It became a yearly ritual for me and my friends. When we finally got across years later, it lived up to everything we expected and more. Watching Coachella from afar, I've never really felt the same appeal. Glastonbury has personality and depth, Coachella to me feels rather souless and over commercialised.

Nah, you won’t need a 2nd one. It’s just quite the walk from the car park to the box office, you basically have to walk back out along the road

Looks like See Tickets have updated their payment processor as Mastercard & Visa debit cards have worked for our gang (internationals) so definitely worth a try with Revolut. Amex is often not accepted by businesses, nothing unusual there

In celebration of balance payment, I've lit the ceremonial candle 🙇‍♂️ 🙇‍♀️

Paid. See you in the field people ✌🏼✌🏼

Sticking this in here for my fellow non-UK. Debit cards appear to be working this year (in Ireland anyway). Great news!

Good news guys, looks like debit cards are working this time (at least for Irish accounts anyway!)

Unlikely* curveball would be Lizzo getting a headline slot and GNR in as the legends. *is it that unlikely though? Would tick a lot of boxes…
