I agree..

 

@payneruk to elaborate on this Bang Hai is the biggest (I think?) stage on site. It's huge, and predominantly DnB. It's the shape depicted being overgrown in the video and it makes sense to evolve with the story line, downfall of Bang Hai and uprising of the environment. 

It is replacing Bang Hai

Oh hell yes!

Black Sun Empire had always been the ones that got away. I cannot wait to rectify that

They were awesome a couple of years ago. 

My Nu Leng will be a hell of a way to party out the last of the energy too.

Am I counting the districts right? The posters this year are saying there are 12 districts, they have announced 11* so far but Town Centre and Paradise Heights are still to be announced so that would be 13. Paradise Heights hasn't been removed from the listings page (like Sector 6 and Bang Hai were) and Town Centre has already been partially announced so it can't be dropping one of them.

1. *Old Town
2. Copper Country
3. Whistlers Green/Kidztown
4. Forest Parties
5. Metropolis
6. Diss-Orderly Alley
7. DSTRKT 5
8. Barrio Loco
9. Relic
10. Area404
11. Lions Den

I don't think the forest parties are regarded as a district.

I was also a bit perplexed by this. All 11 of the posters so far say "1 of 12 totally immersive districts".

However, they did say the final announcement would be Fri 29th of March, so that does allow room for the two remaining missing districts to be announced.

I guess we will end up with 13 posters which all say "1 of 12 totally immersive districts". Opps haha.

This Relic lineup really is a thing of beauty

If you haven't seen this already you should check out this short doc mixmag did on Bangface Weekender, Bangface's very own festival otherwise known as 'pingers at pontins'

 

Also an interesting article in the Guardian this week:

There's some good stuff there. Tom McGuire, Professor Elemental and Fullee Love are highlights for me.

Mainstream media covering debachuery in a positive way? I never excepted to read that in The Guardian

Rob Da Foodbank almost made me spit my tea over my keyboard and it just got better from there

Apart from Cut Capers (who are great btw!) everything on Town Centre was already announced which is a bit disappointing. It also looks like Salt n Pepa wont be headlining so they wont clash with Lauren Hill if they are playing the same day.

Does Eats Everything always play so many sets or are they copying Glastonbury? I'm not complaining BTW. Love him.

Selling my ticket £250 wounded i can’t go. Ticket includes early entry on wednesday i buy the last installment tomorrow then change ur name on it

[Tommy101]

Eats Everything at the Bad Apple has fun written all over it. 

With the rest of that Town Centre line up I'm thinking there'll be a lot of clashes. Great line up for me this year but most acts I want to see are in a big font size so am going to assume they're all on at the same time ?

Not for some time yet. Was mid-July last year.
