The Placid Casual Posted March 2, 2016 Report Share Posted March 2, 2016 Couple of quick questions. Is Noel Gallagher playing the Friday or Sunday? The lineup page has Bastille for both days. Will day tickets become available? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dirty_dog Posted March 2, 2016 Report Share Posted March 2, 2016 Noel is sunday night, Hot Chip Saturday 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DomDom1984 Posted March 2, 2016 Report Share Posted March 2, 2016 Other bands not as stacked as I thought the second announcement would be, but SFA and Broken Social Scene are enough to get me even more into the idea. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DomDom1984 Posted March 30, 2016 Report Share Posted March 30, 2016 First arts and culture acts get confirmed tomorrow. As well as some music of course. This is a pretty crucial announcement for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnl Posted March 31, 2016 Report Share Posted March 31, 2016 Mostly Arts stuff out today. I love this place, it will be my third year in a row, but for a £200 festival it's not looking great value right now. Hoping for some late surprises otherwise it could be strike three and out.

DomDom1984 Posted March 31, 2016 Report Share Posted March 31, 2016 There's still the stage split announcement which fills it out, but it's not brilliant at this stage. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnl Posted March 31, 2016 Report Share Posted March 31, 2016 I'm still clinging onto the hope that once Latitude is out of the way New Order will be announced as special headliners. They are playing Electric Picnic the same weekend so are about and they do love FN6. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sinc72 Posted May 15, 2016 Report Share Posted May 15, 2016 Considering heading along to Festival Number 6. I am just wondering if that is pretty much it for the line up this year? Its quite expensive for a 'smaller festival' at £200! Ive been to quite a few festivals over the years now, how does festival number 6 compare to the likes of Kendal Calling, Greenman etc. Someone suggested that it is quite sensible, middle class types that go. I don't know if that is really my thing... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
generationgav Posted May 19, 2016 Report Share Posted May 19, 2016 First time going to Festival Number 6, does anybody know what time the main stage and then the woodland stage finish? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know if that is really my thing... if this Festival was in a random field somewhere then it would be half the price but it's in the best location possible you can have a festival in the country, probably is more middle class than most festivals but that will change this year with Noel headlining. if the weathers good this is possibly the best Festival in the UK but can only compare it to Glastonbury and Green Man but it's one you have to try at least once.

sinc72 Posted May 25, 2016 Report Share Posted May 25, 2016 I assume its unlikely then that the line up will change much? Not that it is bad, although wouldn't mind a couple more bands similar to Temples, Eagulls, Blossoms etc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sinc72 Posted June 3, 2016 Report Share Posted June 3, 2016 I've got a feeling that New Order might be added. The only reason I'm basing this on is I commented under their most recent post about New Order asking if they will be added to the lineup and FestNo6 deleted it! Could just be 2+2=5 but might be something in it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sadimmock Posted July 2, 2016 Report Share Posted July 2, 2016 I'm pretty indifferent to big chunks of the music line-up this year, but some of the other stuff is look absolute top-notch. Really excited now. Has anyone heard the rumour that the organisers don't have a great relationship with the big booking agencies, hence the slightly unusual line-ups? i can't remember where I heard it but was widening if there was any truth in it?

michael eavis' beard Posted July 8, 2016 Report Share Posted July 8, 2016 Does anyone have any info on the park and ride times? Looking increasingly like my mate's going to have to be in work on Monday morning so trying to work out whether it's best leaving after the headliners on Sunday night or getting a bit of sleep and setting off early doors Monday morning. Should only take a couple of hours to get home. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep the big agencies have squeezed them out in previous years making things difficult but I think Bestival holds a small stake in this festival so will hopefully be able to share an act or 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Green.flash Posted July 19, 2016 Report Share Posted July 19, 2016 Notice there's a special guest listed for the Friday but can't see django django who were originally mentioned. Do you think I've answered my own question, or will there be one last surprise? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robskyd Posted July 19, 2016 Report Share Posted July 19, 2016 Well spotted! I was looking forward to seeing Django Django. Someone on here has mentioned a rumour about New Order so this post is just to fuel it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
