smogo Posted July 8, 2013 Report Share Posted July 8, 2013 I think announcements have generally been on Wednesdays and Fridays this year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
monkey1989 Posted July 12, 2013 Report Share Posted July 12, 2013 Hopefully today then Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smogo Posted July 12, 2013 Report Share Posted July 12, 2013 I'm doubting it now; the other day the Bestival twitter account said something along the lines of "more live acts and DJs, plus day splits, coming in the next few weeks". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thewayiam Posted July 18, 2013 Report Share Posted July 18, 2013 site increase to 80k pretty much is decent Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alexmckenzie Posted July 18, 2013 Report Share Posted July 18, 2013 Hopefully it doesn't get too crowded, getting around at night with 50,000 people was just about OK! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rexclark Posted July 18, 2013 Report Share Posted July 18, 2013 Mentioned this on the official forums, do we think that Bestival could sell 80,000 tickets? They'd have to book a lot more big, mainstream acts to shift an extra 30,000 tickets. Interesting to see how they would expand the site.

monkey1989 Posted July 18, 2013 Report Share Posted July 18, 2013 I thought it was fine how it was and must be making a healthy profit if it regularly sells out Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hoils Posted July 19, 2013 Report Share Posted July 19, 2013 Hooray! A post from Dave The Hedgehog slagging off Bestival! It's been a while. You went to Glasto and had an amazing time, enthralling stuff! Everyone does (having said that, you just wait for a 97,98 or 07!). I first went to Glasto in 1992 and have been to every one since and would pretty much level ever criticism you have RDB's shindig at the Eavi and their behemoth. It may take 20 years but you'll become jaded of Glasto eventually and realise that, for all its faults, that Bestival aint so bad. But you are cynical before your years and experience, and for that I tip my hat to you. Cynically. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CanbyBlaine Posted July 19, 2013 Report Share Posted July 19, 2013 "Our new festival license for 79,999 people is in place to cope with the demands of our huge creative and site build teams, as well as the vast number of artists and crews that perform at the festival. We are still only selling 55,000 tickets for festival-goers. No other shows of this size have so many stages and artists, so the capacity increase allows us to keep growing the entertainment at the festival year on year while keeping the festival's boutique ethos."
