The Love Fields just posted this on their Instagram:

 

 

 

Looking at this I think the new angle of West Holts could be an issue with a large crowd.  They would be more to the right (as looking at the stage) and clash with the path which runs through the field.

That's the blues. It's turned 180 degrees this year. No more slope down to the stage 

Is it bigger this year? It looks it, but then again we have no reference as it is normally not visible on the Webcam.

Looks like the goalposts for the video screens at the pyramid are being put up.

It is.  See a few posts back there is an Insta from them showing the build.

Is there a thread humorously discussing the product range, whether they will do delivery to your tent, etc., etc.? I haven't been on the Forum much recently until this immediate pre-festival excitement building stage, and I feel I have some catching up to do!!!

Not really!  There is a thread about the Co-op somewhere, but it was mainly feverish speculation about whether they would sell booze, which all stopped when they decided/announced that they would not.  Then the thread died.

Assume they will sell mixers though? Do we think there will be a mark up, or same prices as normal stores? Wondering if I can avoid lugging so much stuff if I can get it in there.

I was wondering this. I’m bringing gin so was hoping they sold some sort of tonic water as I cba to lug that in with me also

It’s hard to say without the dressing. The back of the stage looks the same height, but maybe it’s wider. The tent thingy is still in front of the stage. But of course nothing is in the slope which will be nice.

The Open Arms
Located just off the main drag opposite the Greenpeace field The Open Arms is the Festival’s newest live music venue. As well as a bar offering cocktails and ales there will be coffee and mocktails for those wanting to stay focused. If you or your band would rather be on stage than off it, drop in and ask for the stage manager.

    • Another note, if I didn't mention the food in the arena for main stage is right at the back. Bands wise they do very well for but as a festival so far they pros are outweighed quite heavily currently for me.
    • On another note for RIP as an event, there is some good things but there are so many things people going to UK festivals would hate and how far behind they are.  Consistent network and water, beer and pretzel like food is brought around to buy in the crowds. Topping up on the wristband is good. The camping and food arrangement is not good, you really need cooking kit. Water points inside the arena are bonkers, water points in camping are a faff unless you are close enough in general camp. Merch stands are crazy. You MASSIVELY need to think about your lidl shop for camping and try and do it so you've one stop. It's definitely worth it getting to a camping shop here, picking up a rolley between your mates and stacking it for the walk back....lidl is cheap though, not hard getting in but Thursday queues getting in and into the camping is mad. You have to register first for a wristband as well leaving any bigger bags behind so pull to a side if only two and do it separately. I was joining a WhatsApp group for solo camp so went with the flow but I've learnt. Had it been me or just two my tent would have been down much quicker.  Big final note, I got a fresh and black 3 man from decathlon before coming and put in bigger suitcase with my airbed and sleeping bag...do this. Take a smaller option for your clothes. If you go to Munich first, book your train to Nuremberg as far in advance as you can....very important!....it hikes crazy. Probably bettee overall for baggage sizes to do BA both ways but you do then need to go back to Munich after too. Use the B&B hotel hbf the night before....its very nice, comfortable, cheap and within 10 minutes of the station which also serves as a transport stop 15 minutes from the registration.  Get up literally like 5am with everything back the night before, shower and go. Transport is free anyway for festival ticket holders during the duration.  Would I just choose to travel in each day and back to a hotel?, on the basis of sleep and getting accommodation cheap enough for 3 nights i might just do especially if I picked the ticket up early enough. It doesn't feel like a festival in a normal sense....unless you are in general yoi have to exit on the paths outside the camping to walk down and in which also applies for getting water so have a stock up. Toilets are in the camping.
