Thanks to @Quahog5, we've started disrailing another thread talking about how big all the areas are and whether they are open air or tents.  Can we rank them in terms of size?  I had a go and quickly realised I had no idea.  This is physical capacity, not stature/prominence. 

Anyone fancy having a stab at listing them beyond this pathetic effort?

Surely the categories need sorting out first. Tents in with the uncategorised 1 to 5? A 'semi-open' in with the tents?

Open Air

Tents

Semi-Opens

Miscellaneous e.g. Bandstand. 

I was hoping for one big sorted list, with the category next to each stage. The bullet pointed list is just because I don't know the order.

Thanks :) It's vaguely accurate sure, but far far far from complete.  I want Croissant Neuf ranked correctly!

Umm small Tent I'd say.. 

Saw the new one up the other day.. Was told by people who know more than me that it was a new tent they were putting up to test it out before the festival proper..

    • I was so lucky yesterday, disappointed of course not to see Massive Attack, but gorgeous sets from Blood Orange, Caroline, Panda Bear, and Father John Misty was a real highlight. The half of Geese i saw was mint too.   I wanted to see overmono but couldnt hack it anymore.   But now, its Friday, I'm In Love
