There was still a good feeling around the place but I do feel, with the increased capacity, its different. Not too much that I'd be at all concerned though. This was still mine and the partner's choice for a chilled out festival. I guess it comes with the territory, any event which basically triples in size will be different. But I do think this years lineup was aimed squarely at the 16-20 group. You hit the nail on the head mate. The Friday when we got there was surrounded by teenagers, completely different to 2 years ago, and started to regret it slightly. That said, didn't see any trouble whatsoever the whole weekend. Everybody was absolutely sound. We had a festival virgin with us (who is 49) and she said she couldn't believe how polite and friendly all the youngsters were.

onionterror Posted July 29, 2016 Report Share Posted July 29, 2016 (edited) I've been going to truck since the second one and it's always been a very young crowd, as for a lot of local kids it's traditionally seen as their first festival away from mum and dad so they get a bit of freedom. It's always been a bit of a thing at Truck but some years you just seem to notice it more than most, and I do agree that it's particularly noticeable in the campsite now. I do miss the early days of Truck before it started to get popular though - it was better when the security team consisted of two blokes sitting on a sofa getting stoned all day!
