Ollie 1995

Just got back home from this and it was without doubt the most poorly organised festival I’ve ever been to. They clearly didn’t have the infrastructure to host a ~50,000 (felt like way more than this) people festival. Toilets were literally unusable from Thursday onwards, meaning poor kids (average age of the festival felt about 18) were having to literally s**t in the bushes. Not to mention girls having to squat infront of hundreds of people just to go for a piss. Hearing about the current traffic situation on the site doesn’t surprise me in the slightest, we left at 7am as we couldn’t wait to get away from the place. Friends of mine left on Friday as it was pretty unliveable. Utter piss take from the people in charge, because these seem to me like some real schoolboy errors here - whether they were just cutting corners to benefit financially is another conversation I guess, but some kids would have had a truly awful (first) festival experience this weekend which is just not fair. Rant over but feel like something definitely needs to be done about this, as it felt very much like the UK’s answer to Fyre Festival.

Was going to ask the same thing - seen rumours of 9.50 pints on twitter & instagram but not sure what to make of them, could well be a load of bollocks. Desperados sponsoring the event stinks to me of 5/6 quid bottles/cans from their bar?
