Hi,

I'm thinking about ordering tickets for me, my girlfriend, and 2 and a half year old little girl.

Can you tell me how many people go to the festival?

Also, we're not going to be able to get there until Thursday night. Will there still be space in the family camping field at that time, or does the space fill up quite quickly?

I've only really been to Glastonbury before, and the camping space fills up VERY quickly there. Is it the same here?

Finally, if you've been before, where is it normally held? and when do you find out the actual location?

If you can answer any of the questions above it'll be a great help.

Thanks

Mark

Our first Shambala this year too.

After many years of doing Glasto wanted to try a smaller festival with a Glasto vibe ready for no Glasto next year.

More and more each year I find I spend more time at Glasto at Jazzworld / circus / cabaret areas , so Shambala looked a good choice.

Couple of questions for those that have been ..

Does much go on during the Thursday?

How do practical things like loos & camping compare to Glasto?

Any other tips / advice for first time Shambala goers?

Always wanted to play at Shambala? Now is your chance!

Following the roaring success of their Making Tracks shows in London, where fresh and exciting short films are given live rescores by The Cabinet of Living Cinema, Whirlygig Cinema are taking this groundbreaking event to The Lost Picture Show at Shambala. But instead of having a professional live re-score band perform the soundtracks to films, they are opening it up to the general public.

So we are looking for a bunch of people who have a ticket for the festival and are up for getting involved in this exciting experiment. The idea is simple: we play the films, and you play the music in front of a live audience. If you’ve always fancied yourself as the next Michael Nyman or Hans Zimmer, now is your chance! Find out more...

first time for me too......brought a ticket from e-bay that's included a camper van pass. Can anyone tell me whether the camper van field is inside or outside the festival? Don't fancy putting up a tent in a field that's outside, in which case would there be a problem with us leaving the car in the camper field and walking the tent over to the main area and camping there?

Also heard there is a silent disco thing after 2 so does the site keep going all night?

We have a load of return train tickets from London St Pancras to Market Harborough(nearest station to Shambala) for sale (going spare after they were originally bought for getting festival crew to site).

They are return tickets, leaving this Thursday morning from St Pancras and on Monday afternoon after the festival from Market Harborough.

We are selling them at £15, at least £5 cheaper than the going rate. Message me with your number if you are interested.

Thanks!

    • Tonight was a disgrace. There wasn't *that* much rain, and it wasn’t *that* windy. A festival of this size should be able to withstand some adverse weather without it bringing the whole circus to a standstill. And if it is true that part of a speaker on the Revolut stage fell…   As for the communication - announcing Massive Attack were playing at 12:30 and then nothing for over an hour while people waited in the rain. It’s laughable it really is.   If I said I’ll never come back again I’d be lying. The shambles of Barcelona 2022 and the disgrace of Madrid 2023 didn’t stop me, so this probably won’t either.   This festival gets so much wrong, but it is always saved by having such killer line-ups. It’s just a shame it treats the fans/customers/consumers like animals. Compare it to somewhere like Glastonbury and it’s worlds apart.
    • Yeah, I admit that a small part of me felt relieved when they announced that MA are canceled.. But on the positive side- got to see Florence Road afterall, and they were great
    • Glad I could take the €3 bus to Playa Catalunya! Hope y'all warm and dry up.
    • Taxi mafia running their usual scam.
