Just been doing some comparisons with the 2019 build, out of (obsessive) interest.

At this point in 2019, the ribbon tower was complete. Work on Other stage had commenced in earnest. Early Greenpeace workers were camped in their field. There was no sign of the fence, or the backstage/hospitality tents by the side of the Pyramid.

The first sign of construction on Glastonbury on Sea appeared on 6th May.

The Arcadia crew arrived on Tuesday 7th May (the day after May Day bank holiday that year), and the first signs of the Park stage were visible on cam.

By 8th May, two large cranes were assembling Other's towers.

Cranes appear at the Park stage on 9th May, and by 10th May the Park stage structure was complete. This is also when the fence first appeared in 2019.

In other words, we're right at the point we can expect to see a significant ramp up of work on the farm!

Edit: I used this amazing page to browse through the 2019 build.

We are now at 6 1/2 weeks until the festival starts so should be full on from now on 🙂

So if they start tomorrow they will be on the same schedule as the last festival. Hopefully things will be erected quicker the second time around now that they’ve sorted out the snags from the first erection.

Festival started on the 26th in 2019, so they've actually less time...

    • Audrey Hobert getting a lot of traction lately and new single on Friday. Wonder if she could be round next summer.
    • Think Pulp are optimistic, not in terms of size but just that they've been on the road (albeit not intensively) for 3 years in a row and it feels like EotR is the deliberate end of the cycle.   Would be fairly surprised if they're active next year.
    • 👍 plus they brought their own screens 📺 either side of the stage.
    • Production was the only thing that could even explain why she would back out. Like they had sorted out the financials and she was fine with it and then a production meeting happened. It all fell apart. It was very clear that she was not going to compromise her show one bit and then that show in Brazil pretty much confirmed it. There was like one element they couldnt pull off outdoors, but it was negligible since the rest was a carbon copy of the tour she had been on. Glasto is not willing to make any bold changes on the Pyramid stage so then theyre kinda stuck in terms of what some acts want/demand. I think the easiest solution to that is putting her on Friday. You deal with the changes for one night and then re configure for the rest of the weekend. In 24 they were fortunate to have had Dua and Coldplay on Fri and Sat so they could both use the b stage. But I think it was removed for Sunday?     I saw a random rag article earlier that said Olivia Dean turned down Glasto BECAUSE her ex ( not even confirmed dating ) Harry Styles was playing the fest. hahahaha
    • No argument that he’s bigger than ever, I just have no enthusiasm for it.
