So where are these day splits then?

[Justiceforcedave]

With Glasto gone I want to get excited about Bestival! Need something to talk about! Where are these day splits?

[Frankly Mr Shankly]

I concur I'd like to know the day splits & a little more clarity around the whole M.I.A playing twice thing would be nice too.

[monkey1989]

On Sunday they said that day and stage spits would be realised within two weeks

[monkey1989]

I thought MIA was just playing the Thursday as headliner

[smogo]

Her Twitter a while back said Thursday and Saturday.

[monkey1989]

Oh excellent

[JC-Mo'Fucka]

just need the splits to kickstart the excitement, the boards are dead! Hopefully the hip hop day and AMP won't bring too many clashes

[monkey1989]

the boards are dead but it's not stopped me getting super excited , costume and booze and snack shopping next

[Matt - Ed Banger Records]

The Site Map is getting released tomorrow, so hoping the day splits may come with that as well?

[Frankly Mr Shankly]

The day splits were promised for last Friday or Tues at the latest, yet again they've failed to deliver without any explanation as to why.

I'm super excited for Bestival, but what with refusing to release the set times so people have to buy a lanyard & severely limiting the amount of alcohol you can take in to the campsite with you I can't help but feel they're trying to squeeze every last penny put of us that they can.

[weirdfish]

I feel like the alcohol limit will be poorly enforced, if at all. Ridiculous to expect one crate to last all weekend.

Bestival have said Cyril Hahn will play twice on Saturday - once at the port and once somewhere else, but I can not remember where.

I understand this may not be what you're looking for, but it means I am able to lose my mind twice in one day, which previously was unfathomable.

[monkey1989]

at the very least they should give us the day splits today , I know it sucks about not getting the set times but one lanyard between like 4 works out as a few quid each

[Frankly Mr Shankly]

I messaged them on Facebook & received a reply saying that the day splits will be announced tomorrow.

[monkey1989]

I'm not getting 2 excited cos they keep saying that the cheeky devils

[Justiceforcedave]

Yaaaawn. *looks at watch*

[Frankly Mr Shankly]

So first off it was a month until they were announced (this was around June). Then when that month was up it was going to be two weeks. Then nothing for a while & no explanation as to why they failed to deliver. Then they say on Twitter it'll be announced on Friday 23rd or Tuesday 27th of Aug at the latest due to working on the "graphics", Tuesday comes & goes...still no day splits. So I personally message them & get told they'll be announced on Friday 30th. Surprise surprise it's the 31st, still no day splits & no explanation as to why we've been kept waiting so long & lied to so many times. Very bad organisational skills to say the least!

[weirdfish]

Pretty annoying! Starting to get proper excited now and I wanna start planning my schedule

[smogo]

It wouldn't be particularly helpful anyway without any stage times, and we know we're not getting them in advance.

[weirdfish]

We usually get times like a day before the festival right? I remember being able to print out a fairly accurate clash-finder last year. Took like 4 with me and they were all lost by the end but they served me well.

[smogo]

Yep, that's happened when there's been an app. No sign of an app yet but apparently there still "might" be one.

[monkey1989]

as long as its here b4 wed I don't care , I can forgive them as the comedy lineup and map were v good

[JC-Mo'Fucka]
