What name are you under on the app? Defo up for this! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thursday is basically massively stacked. every single one of those will be absolutely rammed out of the tent as well. so get there early!

They were very funny and get a great atmosphere going in the bar, so it was a top place to shelter from the rain. Saw them in 2015, without doubt a highlight of the festival, such a good atmosphere and cracking sing along tunes! Will defo be there again this year!

This is definitely on my list after looking at some of their videos on Youtube. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WillyC3000 Posted June 15, 2017 Report Share Posted June 15, 2017 My group of mates use the Wednesday and Thursday to walk around all the green peace areas and visit the stone circle before getting side tracked by all the music Friday onwards. We were there in 2015 and I remember a little wishing garden where people were writing down a wish and pinning it to the wooden frame, anyone know if that is there every year?

Gnomicide Posted June 15, 2017 Report Share Posted June 15, 2017 What's Shangri-La like on a Wednesday night, does it get packed? Hoping to get up there to see The Travelling Band in S.H.I.tv at 00:15 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Homer Posted June 15, 2017 Report Share Posted June 15, 2017 On the Thursday night I always go to the unannounced dress rehearsal of the Arcadia spider show. Good way to get it in without missing a headliner. Top tip right there! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let's not also encourage people who aren't that fussed in the first place! (But yes, great fun!) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DJL Posted June 15, 2017 Report Share Posted June 15, 2017 New York brass band are always fun for brass covers of famous songs (and play multiple sets all over), rodney branigan (1 man who guitars), show hawk duo (Williams green Thursday acoustic covers of dance tracks), just a couple of mum's as has been said. I will add smooth sailors and that northern soul set to this list. Love Wednesday and thursday Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As it's not on the lineup - do you just loiter around the field for a few hours or is there a rough time... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We know about it cos a mate's bro works in the bar for Arcadia. It's a bit scaled down but you get most of it. I think it usually happens around dusk if that happens. Maybe ask the security/tech bods in the field earlier in the evening? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know, the reality is I probably won't stick to any of them! Definitely plan to catch Eats and go from there, if everything else is rammed then there are plenty of other option, will probably head to the Blues.

LeeGalvin Posted June 15, 2017 Report Share Posted June 15, 2017 I've been listening to Pumarosa's album to death, and I genuinely think that after Radiohead they're now my most anticipated band of the festival!
