ramragon Posted August 14, 2015 Report Share Posted August 14, 2015 Has anyone got any suggestions to improve the site for 2016 ? Personally after seeing the effects the weather has on the site I wouldn't mind seeing a bit of extra tracking put down on the ground at the entry point to some of the fields, the deer lodge and accessable camping areas were horrendous by the Monday with a majority of the people in accessable needing a tractor for their cars to be pulled out. The trackway doesn't have to go that far into field, just past the initial entry point where the issues occurred. More toilets down by the woodland area was a must as well cos every time we went through there were more people lashing in the trees and nettles than queueing for the loos.

cdm22 Posted August 14, 2015 Report Share Posted August 14, 2015 Toilets in the woods, draft beer/lager/cider in all beer tents, and some woodchips for the camping areas when it rains. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ramragon Posted August 14, 2015 Author Report Share Posted August 14, 2015 Yeah more woodchips would have helped, although their was a stash close to where we were and I managed to steal about 12 carrier bags full of em ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lowther Calling Posted August 14, 2015 Report Share Posted August 14, 2015 The track down the side of the accessible camping was a joke. There was good rubber walkway matting at one end, but it just stopped with a swamp in the middle! They really need to take note of where was a problem area, and address it before it happens.

Elliot render Posted August 14, 2015 Report Share Posted August 14, 2015 Same as most others I'd guess, Better pathways in the camping areas in case of bad weather, didn't think the arena was that bad!! Metal tracks wood chips etc And more people directing traffic on both entering and exiting the site, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Curlygirl Posted August 15, 2015 Report Share Posted August 15, 2015 Draught lager/cider rather than very expensive 330ml bottles. Better route in... 3 hour Q was a joke.... If this isn't sorted, then a few portaloos dotted around on the way in. Definately more loos in the woodlands. I missed a whole set prior to Postcard band whilst waiting for a toilet. Other than this... I had a fabulous time and am registered for early tickets next year.!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Comfy Bean Posted August 16, 2015 Report Share Posted August 16, 2015 On this q to get in thing.... Even more crazy as they had made Thursday ticket only, charging an extra 25 notes, so they knew exactly how many folk were due to turn up. Word on the gate was that the extra staff didn't start their shift till 4pm. Madness. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Comfy Bean Posted August 16, 2015 Report Share Posted August 16, 2015 Get these guys booked for 2016. Word I heard was they expressed an interest for 2015 but didn`t hear back from kc. Brilliant festival band. That looks to me a bit like Lochland`s flag late on in the video Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fumps Posted August 21, 2015 Report Share Posted August 21, 2015 the only things I think the event can be pulled up on legitimately would be the traffic mess up on Thursday, access for people if the weather turns bad (This didnt effect me but i felt for anyone who has difficaulty walking in that mud) & the Beer prices. If they sort that they have pretty much nailed it in my eyes . The traffic is hopefully a steep learning curve and wont happen again. And the price of a can of beer was ridiculous to say the least. Everything else was spot on in my book. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
