In some previous years, the trackway has been laid in Other stage field on the Monday of festival week as it's come directly from Download Festival. 

How interesting! I was thinking more for where they build the stage though.

Wasn't this part of the 2016 problems - the trackway had got stuck in the mud at Download?

Yes, in 2016 it arrived still covered in mud!  We've seen them laying the trackway on Monday as recent as 2022/3 though, can't remember which!

They’re not messing about this morning, next cover is already up! 

[westholtschic]

Looks like they are getting ready for the other one as well 

[deadponyclub]

getting the rest of the covers on before the rain comes this weekend

[Crazyfool01]

Think the forecast is showers so at least they’ve got a bit of cover now 

[WforWill]

The first of hundreds of thousands of fencing is being delivered

If it takes them this long to get a tent up they should have considered going for Sticklinch or WV pre-erected camping.

Sod being the person carrying that from gate A … not sure you’d be allowed on the bus either 

[WforWill]

Usually, by now a whole bunch of containers would have been delivered. Wonder where most of them come from? A tractor and an attachment called a dolly haul them from this yard (on the left) where they store a lot of the infrastructure and decorations. They also store the caravans the long-term crew live in here too. When the build isn't on the place is crammed!

They haul them to the bus area during the build. Currently, this is the latest in a while they haven't arrived yet. There we go! I am bored...

The caravans stored here are the non-roadworthy caravans used for the campsite crew hubs!

Good spot!  The fly-boys are obviously doing a bit of sightseeing before the NOTAM kicks in in June.  (Did you know there is a set of flying regulations specific to Glastonbury festival?)

Sunshine and showers is perfect for the farm . Think that’s set for a few days yet . Rubbish 24hrs here but now the sun is out . Hopefully things start ramping up after today . It’s been a bit quiet on the webcam after they started the pyramid covers
