wro_lap Posted August 6, 2023 Report Share Posted August 6, 2023 Leeds Early Entry going for £250 on Twickets and £230 on Ticketmaster already - I reckon some of us will be doing 5 days for under 200 quid! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jonnyisRFC Posted August 6, 2023 Report Share Posted August 6, 2023 I crumbled and just picked up a Reading Weekend ticket for £190 on twickets. The festival isn’t what it once was but for £190 I couldn’t say no! I still expect them to drop further than that though. Excited to see Frank Turner, Games We Play, Magnolia Park, Knocked Loose, Jamie Webster, KennyHoopla, Sleep Token and The Amazons. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So less weight on the set times with the new main stage setup, only want them to see potential for secret sets 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sacred shape Posted August 7, 2023 Report Share Posted August 7, 2023 Also, I emailed support to ask about bike parking. Apparently there is none and they 'don’t advise arriving by bike'. All the promotion of sustainability and the only way to get to the site is motor vehicle. When I went to Werchter, there were tonnes of cycle spaces and tonnes of bikes parked there.

There should be cycle parking at Rivermead Lesuire Centre, however. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reading at least is relatively well served by train if you’re trying to be as green as you can Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tyler_Durden Posted August 8, 2023 Report Share Posted August 8, 2023 Anyone know how yellow campsite at Leeds is these days? I know it's got nothing on the madness of blue/red and it was a bit lively in there some years back, was just toying with idea of either camping brown for the peace or if yellow is quite mellow now due to its location and the fact that I might be able to park in the access car park which is like a 2 minute walk away?

Just a way to promo a good cause Hopefully no one will watch them to give the organisers any ideas! It will be rammed On 8/4/2023 at 8:34 PM, On The Blend said: Was there ever actually a Reading vs Leeds debate that wasn’t just North vs South? Leeds doesn’t have a curfew and has all the night stages, just seems objectively better to me? Definitely there was a debate Reading doesn't have the late night but can get bigger guests / exclusive secret sets e.g. Dave brought out Stormzy at Reading and Jack Grealish at Leeds.. If you want late night stuff you should just go elsewhere, leeds looks shocking for it vs any proper festival that focuses on it. no doubt full of ketty 16 year olds.
