2020 Next Announcement Thread!

[Wellyboot]

I'm not hopeful for this week or next really but would love to be proved wrong!

I do wonder if coronavirus has slowed things down a bit

This is my thinking, too - that they are going to embargo any further detail until they know more about how the outlook looks, so-to-speak.

All points towards an earlier announcement are probably now down the drain imo.

I just booked my holiday for Glasto so it better bloody go ahead! I’ve managed to get a generous amount of time booked off!

I managed to broker a deal with my parents to have our three year old for the duration - so if it gets pulled I'll probably be depressed for a year.

They are not going to delay any announcement based on the coronavirus unless things get significantly worse.

We aren't even in to announcement territory yet given the last one was Mid-March and considered very early itself.

I can see Emily looking at the forums and going "Jesus, they're tearing themselves apart here.  Best give them a little announcement and stop them from going full Lord Of The Flies up in there"

 

 

ahahah exactly this - they wait til breaking point then release it

The poster is what I most look forward to.

Not the festival itself?

[sheerin_lfc]

Can I get in on 22nd March for the poster release? It's my birthday and I'll be nursing a giant hangover from a stag do and Liverpool potentially sealing the title the day before, so a Glasto poster will be all I need to properly push me over the edge.

[kingcrawler]

I'll go for 25th March for the poster.

Realistically, no-one has any idea
There is no pattern

I know the no pattern thing is a constant but, it's not really true. There is a rough pattern, and we can be fairly certain it will be within the 40 days.

It may be earlier, as all the announcements have been earlier this year, and we know the poster will be the next announcement.

It will also most likely be released at 8am, or immediately around that time, as the last 3 poster drops have happened then.

So what you're saying is we need to ramp it up a bit?

Never, in my five years on this website, have I read such heresy.

Haha it's like my least favourite thing about this forum. "There is no pattern" except all these things are very obviously patterns and trends.

[priest17]

I may not be right with my guess but at least I won't get that strike out of doom going through my name.

welcome

[eFestivals]

they're going to release the poster just after the announcement that it's cancelled due to corona virus, in a "this is what you could have won" kind of way.

Thinking about this has really ruined my afternoon. Thanks Neil 😛

[Wellyboot]

That would be so so cruel
