I'm sure I've seen someone on here say's a relation works there and it's about 4 weeks. It's a serious amount of canvas. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As long as they put ours about six rows from the entrance to the area with the food tents and not next to a walkway.😊. Ideal the last time we were there! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You'd be in a whole world of shit. It did happen, at least a couple times at the same festival. I want to say 2013, but could be earlier than that by up to about 5 years. It's been covered before, but essentially the long drops used to have a wood covering with regular toilet seats stuck on them, before they started moving to the easier to clean modular ?plastic? style we have now. Only problem was that first batch of the modular style wasn't strong enough (again presumably because they didn't expect people to stand on them) and at least a couple of them gave way that year.

Neville Street Posted May 18, 2022 Report Share Posted May 18, 2022 With only 5 weeks to go, that central part of the Arcadia field is going to be muddy. No way the grass grows properly. Maybe they will cover it in some way, was there an actual dance floor in the middle of the spider? I only ever watched it from the outside area.

Padgey Posted May 18, 2022 Report Share Posted May 18, 2022 Is the GLASTONBURY sign going in? Some activity up there but seems a bit early for that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MJP Posted May 18, 2022 Report Share Posted May 18, 2022 I think I understand the confusion re: placement of co-op now. There's trackway next to the tent which leads onto the railway track, but this is the point where the railway track kinda fizzles out towards Steanbow farm buildings, so it's between them both but is a main walkway.
