eFestivals Posted March 12, 2018 Report Share Posted March 12, 2018 Saturday headliner is General Levy & Joe Ariwa Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tjamest Posted March 23, 2018 Author Report Share Posted March 23, 2018 Sunday headliners Lee Scratch Perry and Mad Professor (rather than Lee Perry the mad professor). Not sure if Lee is still up to it at 80+ though https://www.dubwood.co.uk/lee-scratch-perry-mad-professor-headline-wilkswood-2018/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fingers crossed its the right one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tjamest Posted August 1, 2018 Author Report Share Posted August 1, 2018 Thanks for putting up the ticket link for next year Neil. I didn't manage to get there this year unfortunately, was it as good as last year and had they made many changes? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moving the cv field back one field (which probably had better/more flat space), and better/more loos was about it. A couple of extra food traders too. I don't think it was sold out, seemed a bit quieter this year. I've since bumped into one of the traders who was there, who said they'd declined to pay a pitch fee as it wasn't worthwhile. I enjoyed it again, tho I'm not planning to go back unless something of the line-up attracts me. Edited August 1, 2018 by eFestivals Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Presumably the large price hike from last time put off a fair few new punters. It did our crowd, unfortunately. I'd like to try it this one some time, but putting themselves in that kind of cost bracket means they're competing with festivals with a much weightier lineup.

There's a definite lack of stuff going on to interest people most of the time. It ends up pretty-much as an evening headline concert for 3 days.

dumski Posted June 14, 2019 Report Share Posted June 14, 2019 I’m there for the Saturday this year (2019) I’m assuming security are pretty friendly? Entrance searches and on site? asking for my bud Headliners on at what time roughly? I guess it finishes before 11? I presume you can’t take booze so what’s the rum selection like? Taking the kids, so looks ace for them any hints tips or not to be missed acts. (Purely going for the vibe, to get the kids hooked on festivals and will skank out for Congo natty) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eFestivals Posted June 15, 2019 Report Share Posted June 15, 2019 security are in-place between the campsite and the farmyard (where everything is), and they can ignore you or they can be a pain. As far as I can remember headliners are about 9.30pm-ish, and finished by 11. There's then soundsystems etc. I can't remember whether we bothered to take cans in. Perhaps not, as there was decent ale at a decent (for festivals) price. No idea about spirits. There's lots of space on the site (not so much in the farmyard) and there is a small-ish kids area, but I suspect kids might get a bit bored. Make sure you see Macka B as he's always fun.
