Anyone else looking at this and thinking they'd want to get a move on? One week till gates open and compared to pictures of the festival in full swing it still looks a bit sparse?

All traders units must be in by Tuesday - so there will be a massive change by the end of that day, and apart from BBC Introducing, most main structures are now up. I think they are similar-ish stage to completion vs last year.

One thing I'm always in awe of is how the build goes right up to the very last moment, and then everything starts to come down again the second it's all over.

The logistics involved are crazy.

Basically my (and i'm sure loads of others) dream job to be involved with the planning and logistics of it all.

If I have the dates correct this is what the site looked like on the Wednesday before gates opened last year, comparing the 2 side-by-side in different browser windows they could even be slightly ahead this year...

BBC Introducing going up now. One of the last stages to go up.

Are you talking about the two poles sticking up behind Sonic? If so, they put them up a few days ago and still they haven't put the canvas up. Very odd.

    • That's fair on WA - I did recall people thinking Fontaines would take this year off before this was announced.    On the subject of Wolf Alice, they did Lollapalooza in Chicago on Saturday then Kendal Calling last night. Bit of an odd choice, no? Half imagine at Kendal that they would've been just exhausted.
    • Just logged onto the app to start planning my days and there really are a LOT of stages missing. Apart from the Seaside Stage there is no Casemates this year etc. Apart from the Seaside Stage, there are no Casemates this year, etc. Can't see anything about the kids field really. And there's local acts that are normally there like Kojak's Revenge that aren't appearing either.  Normally we get down fairly early but I can't see anything before 3pm I'm keen to see. Only one real clash as well, which is good, but it's thin and it's not thin in the sense of "I've seen a lot of these acts before"
    • Lifelong Carlisle United supporter here.🤦‍♂️ Good luck for the coming Season and see you in October!
    • Any other lower league/non-league supporters on here? It’s all change at my team, Aldershot Town. We’ve released 25 players and the new manager has brought in 21 or 22 completely new players. Going to be an interesting gamble.   There’s a little video here on the reasons why:
