Will probably head north after rush hour tonight to wake up tomorrow with the view from the clifftop at Heasham - which to be fair is always lovely even when it's shit! May take my traininers and have a little run along theseafront to see Eric in the morning.

Not a cloud in the sky here! Anyone got a surefire method of taking weather with you? If I really try I am sure I can bring it!

Seem to have a signal at the cottage, champion ! Im getting a lift down off the father in law on thurs morning, first time the trip to a festival will have been made listening to classic fm ! His station of choice, his car his rules !

Hoping to leave about 10.30 which should get me there between 12 an 1 I would have thought. Hopefully no silly queues then in an set up.

I'm pretty miffed I can't make it down on Thursday, still got two more shifts to get through yet. My only day off today though means all my packing is done. Just have to get through a rush hour train journey to Manchester then the coach with all my gear, not looking forward to that part

Evening all! First Kendal Calling! Excited!

Couple of quick queries if anyone would be so kind as to answer them! Firstly, I'm sure I read somewhere that you couldn't get a pass out of the festival except in exceptional circumstances (though i can't find it now so maybe I imagined it!) Anyway, I'm planning on making several trips to the car to carry my stuff. just wanted to check that it's possible?

Also, we shan't be arriving 'til around 7 or 8pm, hopefully going to camp in the quiet campsite. I assume we shouldn't have a problem getting a pitch? (Assume should be replaced by hope really!)

Cheers guys!

Notice in the info pack that there are showers in the normal camping (non-Emperors) - is this right?

Also, if anyone wanting to taxi share from Penrith centre on Thursday early afternoon, give us a shout!

    • That leaker off Instagram was saying earlier this year that Nickelback are doing a tour with Broco and Wargasm, but no evidence as yet
    • Gojira are unoficially confirmed by the organisation at Hellfest since last December already.   Slayer was supposed to be this year as a Mainstage 2 headliner at the place of Volbeat for a thrash day but negotiations fell off. Very likely to be there next year.    MCR I didn't know about but it fits well with Hellfest's desire to keep one day as more punk/rock orientated.    Europe are a confirmed headliner for Sweden Rock 2027. They will not headline HF but we may seem them on the bill. I am very curious who will be the legacy bands next year at HF. There was some backlash after 2025 and a bit of a return to heavier metal on the bill in 2026 - e.g. Gatekeeper on the main stage. The only considerable legacy acts I see coming (if they are in Europe) and haven't been at HF for a while are Def Leppard, Motley Crue, Slash, FFDP (if you count them as legacy), ZZ Top, and Lynyrd Skynyrd. I really hope they manage to pull sth big for the 20th anniversary like AC/DC.
    • Looking forward to Doja Cat letting us all know what is going on later on today. It is a good job that somebody is keeping us informed.
    • They've got a few gigs in Dec/Jan.  Hoping to pick up a couple of tickets for Margate later today
