New 2015 Map

[siblin]

Don't know if its been noticed but in amongst the hubbub of the ticket resale glasto seem to have sneaked in a new fine guide map..

Can't see a huge amount of difference just yet, though it is a slightly different layout, colour scheme and slightly more detailed

[Inconspicuous]

Strummerville up at the top could be very, very cool

Other Stage a different shape?

Looks like some changes in Shangrila too.

[sedra]

Well spotted!

[siblin]

It came up on my page change monitor!

Yeah possibly or it could just be a better representation on how it was last year.

mandella bar missing?

[lucyginger]

Great spot! I shall be staring at it now for a while! Thanks

mandella bar missing?

Good spot.

Looks like they have reverted to the 2013 style extension of the back of the Pyramid field. In anticipation of another Stones sized headliner maybe...

Most of the bars are missing, so I wouldn't read anything into it.

I'm going to enjoy studying this in great detail. Thank you!

The bit to the east was like that last year too, though to the north they could have moved the bar to free up space

Edit: oh yeah they've shaved some of row mead again! If anyone has bets on the stone roses or something id cash out. It's gonna be someone big

Looks like extra camping behind the park this year, interesting..

[01seb]

New camping spots behind the Park. Called Chambers & Mrs Wills.

foo fighters and Kanye are already big

foo fighters and Kanye are already big

Yeah, but so are pretty much all Glastonbury headliner. But they're not Stones big and they're the only act that have required an extension of the field

field.

The only person i can think of that would need extra space would be Bowie, and it's obviously not Zavid, is it?

Or is it?

Except that the field "extension" was also fully in place for the 2014 festival, headlined by Arcade Fire, Metallica, and Kasabian.

Can we just accept that (obviously) it's now a permanent change, and nothing whatsoever to do with whoever the 3rd headliner may end up being?

Likewise with the Bars - there's at least 10 missing that I can count, so the absence of the Mandela Bar from the map means nothing.

[kalifire]

I'm guessing this is just an early iteration and the bars and other finer details will be added. Last year we had several of these before the final version, I seem to remember.

Row Mead looks tinier than ever this year! I wonder how quickly that will fill up. Still, Kidney Mead/Pennards looks most desirable in terms of sheer convenience, but bother are a trek from Gate A. Lower Mead looks more bearable but further away from the SE corner... I'll think more about camping areas when the stage lists come out, I reckon.

Officially in 2014 the actual Bar count was just over 90 so there is lots missing - they will reappear in a later version.

I don't remember this.... Its not on the 2014 map but maybe it's not just for headliner... We definately needed that space for dolly so perhaps they are expecting a mega crowd for Mr Ritchie Edited April 19, 2015 by Peroni

This fuels the McCartney possibility more to me

[DJL]

Can someone do the other thingy (a gif that switches back and forth between the 2014 and 2015 map?).

The pyramid fueld thing could be anticipation of the headliner or reaction to Dolly. That said nobody on the current line-up would need extra space so here's hoping...

[FloorFiller]

as much as i want to get my hopes up for a mega sized headliner, surely only the likes of Bowie, Zeppelin etc would require the same space requirements that the Stones had - even Prince, i think, wouldn't come close to pulling the same crowd that they did. purely coincidence i think - maybe a permanent move from the festival to avoid unanticipated overcrowding

[DJL]

Not sure if it is entirely accurate but silver hayes looks interesting. Sonic is still there (same shape sadly) but so is the despacio tent (unlabelled). blues is not shown on the map and BBC introducing (if that's what it still is has a bigger 'dot'...
