Maybe something between the stage and bar and the bottom where the silent disco tent usually is? Always felt that space wasn't very well utilised. They could even be moving the stage back a bit to allow more room.

Emily said something is going where the tipis were.

Haven't the tipis already been paid for though? Or does she mean the 'proper' tipis?

[Gnomicide]

I thought she said "near the tipis". It's be on listen again not too long after 10:30.

Did she suggest that the tipis will be moving and that there will be a new area where they were? 

Need to listen back, but Emily mentioned the new park 'thing' was at/near the tipis and the bbc studio area, while Lauren later mentioned it was where the flags are? There is a lot of empty grass around there.

She said "the Park's got something new appearing next to it where the tipis previously were".

Wasn't that where they had once of the 3 massive bonfires in 2017? 

[giantkatestacks]

They could move the tipis into the Old (new!) Arcadia field if they dont need as much space and can move into SH

[CaledonianGonzo]

She's maybe talking about the celebrity tipis and yurts the other side of the Land's End bar.

[Phoenix Girl]

Only 7th Jan and already so much excitement!! 2019 is going to be ace.

[Brave Sir Robin]

She said it was near the BBC studio bit, which makes them the ‘normal’ tipis.

Help me out with the logic here, with 90% booked they could announce a lot of acts.

Most other festivals have already announced a major part of their line-up.

So, is it that they want us, specifically Glastonbury attendees, to shell out for the gigs of artists we'll already see in June?

It's not as if extra tickets will be sold, we're all committed. I don't understand why they want us to pay twice?

[betharm]

Had to just spread a few angry reacts to the Facebook comments of the announcement. 'Downward spiral' my arse.

Janelle will put on a fantastic show. 

[CaledonianGonzo]

Although the fact that J-Monae has only gone one notch up the line-up in 8 years suggests a career path that's not exactly going stratospheric.

[Mezhyp1]

Anyone else think Emily was about to say something else about who was playing, and Lauren Laverne didn't let her in to say it?

The acts want you to buy tickets for their own gig rather than just see them at Glastonbury, yeah. I imagine that sweetens the deal of them playing for, as Emily mentioned in the interview, less money than other festivals would pay.

Nah, I think Emily is firmly in charge of what is announced and when..

[Crazyfool01]

I wonder if they look at the thingy and decide we haven't announced much in January before... and then bang

Glastonbury gets the acts cheaper, and part of the trade-off for that is not announcing the acts early so they're able to sell tickets for other shows.

If people don't want their wigs snatched then that's their perogative, but it doesn't mean she isn't the queen.

[thewayiam]

Janelle Friday night would be immense, not much would deter me from WH that night. Though a YYYs clash would be a spanner 

[karaseen]

Anyone else notice that LCD were playing in the background of that interview? 

That means Despacio is back!

It wasn't live. They could be saving something for later (though they probably aren't).
