    I don't think so, O-Rod's tour dates came out ages ago so they won't have suddenly become available. Drake is Canadian and there's no way Emily is bigging up a booking of Imagine Dragons like that on the radio. I'd say it was either Madonna, or Stevie W (if Madonna had already fallen through by this point).
  2. My group fly from Belfast to Bristol each year. We fly out on Tuesday and stay in a hostel in Bristol, before getting one of the coaches to the festival on Wednesday morning. This gives us time on Tuesday to go to a supermarket and stock up on our alcohol. We bring one item of hold luggage each (our backpacks) and then we split one additional item of hold luggage between the rest of us. In this additional item, we wrap together our two tents, stacked on top of our trolley.
  3. I fly from Belfast and we just get the airport bus which takes us to the main bus station in Bristol - https://flyer.bristolairport.co.uk/timetables
  4. Hostel in Bristol booked for the Tuesday night. That's tickets, flights, hostel & bus sorted now.
  5. Yeah, we usually book on one hold luggage each (for our backpacks with all our clothes, sleeping bag, etc), and then one additional hold luggage split between us for our two tents and trolley. We then wrap the two tents & trolley together and haven't had any issues in the last two years. We bring enough wrap with us so that we can wrap again on the way back.
  6. Fingers crossed, missed her in 2022. Where did you see this by the way? EDIT: found it: https://www.stavernfestivalen.no/artister-2024
  7. We are getting the early flight to Bristol on the Tuesday morning and then staying at a hostel right beside the main Bristol bus station (Full Moon Backpackers - not available to book just yet though). That will give us plenty of time to pick up supplies. In 2022, we took a later flight and went to one of the Sainsbury's in Bristol for our alcohol, but last year my group (I didn't go last year) got a taxi to one of the Tescos and it was pretty low on alcohol (hence why we are going for the earlier flight this year). Then we have booked the 9am National Express from Bristol Bus Station.
  8. Booked flights from Belfast, and our National Express coach from Bristol.
  9. Yeah, it certainly wasn't 100 people trying for just you. I was one of those others on the resale sheet that year, and I also got sorted thanks to someone on this forum as a result of the sheet being created. To say 100 people tried for just you isn't even close to the truth.
  10. Similar sort of timings for me in 2022. I think our coach left Bristol around 7.30/8am and once we arrived it took us 2 hours I think to get in.
  11. 2nd time for me, with the first being in 2022. In 2022 I was successful in the resale so this time I'm looking forward to being part of the full build-up.
  12. Nice, taking a look now. What phrase did you go for?
  13. My current plan is this: Work laptop & Work VPN - manually refresh Mobile on 5G - manually refresh Personal Laptop: Chrome - VPN extension, autorefresh Firefox - Home WiFi, autorefresh Edge - VPN Extension, autorefresh Does anyone have a good auto refresh tool for Edge/Firefox?
  14. Dublin dates on every night of Glasto
  15. Noah Kahan is out sadly - touring the US next June
  16. Looks like he has a couple of dates in Vegas mid-June after these UK ones, but nothing to stop him coming back over I guess.

    Pink would be a downgrade on Madonna, but an upgrade on Dave in my opinion. Dua Lipa - Coldplay - Madonna: Strong set of headliners (I haven't seen Coldplay before) Dua Lipa - Coldplay - Pink: A weaker set of headliners, but still pretty decent overall Dua Lipa - Coldplay - Dave: Fairly weak
  18. Some people think one of those 2 was Madonna and she has possibly since pulled out.
  19. He could be decent in a similar slot to Rick Astley

    "In negotiations" could mean something like, "yeah, I'd be keen but lets wait until I see what my touring plans look like next year"
  21. I can't see any reason they wouldn't use the new system sadly.
  22. Yeah, I could see them being very popular if the slot is right
  23. Don't think this thread exists yet? Anyway, Keane have a large festival shaped hole in their new dates: Potentially Other opener for 2024?
