From orange site it looks like they are redesigning into three zones 'past/present/future'

Future

The future will be represented in Orange’s phenomenonal future cube. Rest your weary feet and step into an animated world of Glastonbury 2050 with an impressive 360 degree projection that spans the 9 x 9m Orange structure. Visitors will be invited to select their own line up for the Pyramid Stage, play interactive games to win side of stage tickets and even select the weather; all of which will effect the audio, lighting and mood of the space - a true vision of what festivals may be like in years to come. The future cube will also host the premiere of three Music Matters films unveiled by a very special guest on Saturday 26th June. The Music Matters campaign is a collective of people across the music industry, including artists, retailers, songwriters, labels and managers, formed to remind listeners of the significance and value of music.

Present

With over 800 mobile chargers available, this is the place to power up your phone before heading out to watch the days entertainment. The area will be the ultimate chill out zone with sofas and screens playing live football as well as Pyramid Stage footage from the BBC. Orange will provide laptops with internet access, so you can tweet about your Glastonbury adventures, there will also be a 3D Glastonbury Map so that festival goers can work out their movements for the day ahead, the 3D map features a 'fly through' function allowing them to cast a birds eye view over the festival site.

Past

Featuring a mini replica of the Pyramid Stage for performances and screenings of heritage Glastonbury sets, make up artists and a masseuse will also be at hand to provide free makeovers and massages all weekend. Igniting the party on both Friday and Saturday night, the Dixon Brothers will be playing out a raucous, cross-genre DJ set until 10pm.

Across the weekend the Orange Chill ‘n’ Charge tent will host short, unannounced acoustic sets from the likes of Ellie Goulding, Lissie, Tinie Tempah, Liam Bailey, Paloma Faith, Imelda May and Newton Faulkner.

One of the UK’s most acclaimed new artists; Coco Sumner’s solo project I Blame Coco will also take to the stage on the Saturday. Her debut single ‘Caesar’, featuring Robyn, was released in February 2010 to rave reviews. One of the most eagerly anticipated albums of the year ‘The Constant’ is due to follow in September. The next single ‘Self Machine’ will be released on 12th July following her Glastonbury appearance.

Sounds good when / what time does chill and Charge open? Only downside to it is the hugeee ques

[drewsstrat]

10am I think. Crowds look worse than they are, usually go down quick one in one out

[Beaver89]

Very special duet? Sting?

She did say during the IOW coverage she never would

I'm not bothered but just an idea!

Oh god I spent like 3 hours in there last year, ha. Met some funny people in there though. And a good place to go for breakfast reading the paper too

[grunty]

I never go near the -place- looks horrendous....

[Icewulf]

The queues really aren't as bad as they look, they move fairly swiftly... Last time I was in the queue there was about 50 people but it only took about 10 minutes to get in. The one in one out thing works really well.

now i'm all for queueing up for stuff, depending on if it's going to get me off my head or not, but to queue up for chilling and charging? what's this all about? anyone care to enlighten?

[TokiDoki]

I went in once when there was no queue but got bored of charging my phone after about 10 mins.
