Interesting that there isn't a replacement for James Arthur, they are just spacing the acts out. I feel bad for people who have been setting up the site over the last few weeks. But this week must have been so hot and dusty. Glad it is going to cool down on Thursday. There does feel like a special guest gap in here even before James Arthur dropping out.

Charliehmiller Posted July 21, 2022 Report Share Posted July 21, 2022 Just having a look at the map... when did yellow camping get eaten up by Family Camping and where are non-families expected to Camp?

If you mean as near to the arena as possible then be there around opening I imagine but I tend to get there around 1pm (after stopping at Two Magpies Bakery on the way. If you are driving and don't stop there you are missing an excellent start to your weekend) and don't normally queue to get in the car park, don't have a huge walk from the car park and have a good choice of camping spots in the quieter areas of the campsite. This is all kind of dependant on what the map looks like when it comes out though cause they seem to be shrinking the regular camping more and more each year. Had a great breakfast on the way here from Two Magpies, thanks for the recommendation! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Miyn Posted July 21, 2022 Report Share Posted July 21, 2022 They've started to update the schedule, and a lot of the start times are wrong which is really shit, so unless the clashfinder gets updated, please don't use it. Thanks, and have a great weekend all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They often get printed a while before the festival so I think the app is the best bet, as it'll get updated during the festival. The clashfinder in the app isn't great in my opinion, as it's in alphabetical order, and you can't see much of it at once, so I'll be selecting my favourite acts and using it as a daily running order. It's a bit annoying that they got all three pieces of information on the schedule wrong. Set length, start, and end time. We assumed that they'd got at least one right, and that being start time. So the fact that they didn't get any right is disappointing to say the least. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
evannn Posted July 22, 2022 Report Share Posted July 22, 2022 Hope everyone has a great weekend! I couldn't make it this year, but just want to give one last-minute recommendation for Bartees Strange! (Sunrise Arena, 3:45pm today I believe). Saw him in London last night, it was fantastic, and his band were excellent. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But melt yourself down was mind blowingly good, and Groove Armada last night were superb. Any secret sets today you reckon, or is that dream over?

glimmers_of_hope Posted July 25, 2022 Report Share Posted July 25, 2022 Back home and unpacked. Totally knackered but had a great time. My wife has created a new condition... latitude lung, from all the dust that we inhaled over the weekend, lost my voice from Friday morning I still sound like Macy Gray. Highlights... bartees Strange, self esteem, Phoebe bridgers, little simz, orlando weeks and charlotte churches pop dungeon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mobfant Posted July 25, 2022 Report Share Posted July 25, 2022 Had a great time at my first latitude in over a decade. Highlights: LIttle Simz / Foals / Phoebe Bridgers / Manics / Caroline Polachek; (mostly) well maintained toilets and not many queues; and the ease of getting out of the red/brown car park at 8am ths morning Lowlights: Nilufeh Yanay - i don't think i've ever seen an artist less want to be at a gig / the dust. oh so much dust. And someone behind blowing bubbles into my face for the start of the Manics. Overall, it was a cracker. I didn't realise how many families there were and how few 25-45 year olds there would be. But I still had fun. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Played a festival early last week and all of the dust f*cked up his vocal chords. They've had to cancel their last four gigs because of it.

Jacko45 Posted July 25, 2022 Report Share Posted July 25, 2022 How busy was it compared to last year? Couldn't make it this year for various reasons really. Last year with it being the first full UK camping festival since RONA it seemed absolutely insanely busy last year. How was it this year, toilet queues, crowding in tents etc etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Queues about the same for toilets and showers though and family camping about the same. Maybe the number of day tickets was less this year?
