JHad Posted July 12, 2021 Report Share Posted July 12, 2021 Really excited by the prospect of new additions I've never heard of. Just the voyage of discovery I need to get in the mood 😊. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Diamond24 Posted July 13, 2021 Report Share Posted July 13, 2021 Anyone know if they will have a camping shop/stall on site which sells air beds etc? I've messaged them but no reply as of yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They normally have camping stuff and it'll be cheaper and for charity. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rseamer Posted July 13, 2021 Report Share Posted July 13, 2021 Just noticed on the website that gates are opening earlier this year. I wonder what the reason is? Traffic management? Or longer time to get onto site due to vaccine / test checks? As we have a 4/5 hour drive we won’t be arriving early anyway, but I wondered what others were doing? I mean, Latitude is hardly Glastonbury in terms of the rush for camping space. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean, Latitude is hardly Glastonbury in terms of the rush for camping space. First time at latitude for us and first festival in a campervan too, so less bothered about time - we’re working Thursday so we’ll be leaving Liverpool at 5pm. Hoping to get on site around 10pm.

KesyerSoze21 Posted July 13, 2021 Report Share Posted July 13, 2021 First time at Latitude this year. We’ll be travelling over on the Thursday from North Wales so 5 or 6 hr journey each way, looking to get there for 4 o’clock (very much traffic dependent). Likely to have long queues at this time? Any tips on best places to camp (standard camping)? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean, Latitude is hardly Glastonbury in terms of the rush for camping space. Imagine it's a mixture of all those rseamer. I imagine the majority of time added will be confirming the vaccine/test checks though. Think it's good they're pro-actively emailing attendees before to obtain information, seems a good idea to keep everything flowing nicely.

gfa Posted July 13, 2021 Report Share Posted July 13, 2021 We’re looking to turn up around 11am/midday - cannot wait to get through the gates! Very interested when the busier times usually are, i imagine from 12-4 will be the busiest probably Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chrisplowman Posted July 13, 2021 Report Share Posted July 13, 2021 I tend to arrive around lunch time normally and there is always plenty of space in all areas, not planning to arrive any earlier this year but the excitement might get the better of us. Last time out I had space for about three more tents around me all weekend so don't think anyone will struggle to find a spot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
efcfanwirral Posted July 13, 2021 Report Share Posted July 13, 2021 Staying in Norwich the night before, hotel breakfast then train and shuttle bus, hoping to arrive lunchtime. Looking forward to just relaxing and exploring on Thursday Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
