Anything is possible I suppose, but I can't see Glasto giving Arcadia another field along with another £500K budget! What would be kicked out of the SE corner? We already know Block9, Shangri-la and The Common are getting ready, so that only leaves UFG. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mind you access to the field Pangea is in isn’t great I'd be very surprised if they tried that again, I think everyone agreed that was the wrong place.

Not that I think it'd happen, but that IICON field is massive and could fit a couple of their other venues in it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Certainly don't blame the festival for trying things, it's certainly a live and learn process. Another "won't do that again" is the Lovebullets tent in 2017. Caused an horrific soundclash in the area being so close to LeftField and Glade and made the path way to narrow around there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Used to camp in Park Home so wasn't best pleased when they moved it there, but it's probably the best place for it on reflection. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In some ways I can see why they tried it - it basically fired up when the last act finished on the OS. So the crowd moved across taking a bit of load off the usual rush to the SE corner. However unless you were under the spider the sound was awful.. as has always been the issue and that corner just got way too busy and caused a massive bottleneck Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ayrshire Chris Posted April 25, 2022 Report Share Posted April 25, 2022 Anyone else getting consumed with jealousy with all the lucky folk getting Near the site and taking these lovely photos of the build?

I'm already dreading how I'm going to feel on the Sunday before the festival when I'll be at the Wife's granddad's birthday meal at the Crossways in North Wootton which is a mere 2 miles away from Worthy Farm. Every year we go there and being so close to the festival then driving away from it stings big time even though I know i'll be heading back in less than 48 hours time 😂 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Supporting Gillan for me; different times Yeah, couple of times including a headline show at a very sparsely populated Royal Court. Still, they threw sweets out to the crowd so it was all good.

The campsite I’m looking at staying is just nearby to the hotel. Great country walks around the area. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
