Unimpressed.  Very little there for me so one teetering on the brink from my maybe list 

I loved last year's lineup. Though could easily be saved by Phonics, Manics and Fontaines making a return

Currently it's the same as Neighbourhood and that's 10 mins from my house! 

Nothing but Thieves are very high up...

For me a lot of those I would see I've seen recently. It's been hard to miss Blossoms this year for starters. Could definitely be massively improved by those mentioned

So not Courteeners, Phonics and MSP to headline then! 

Never said headline but hey there’s still one headliner to be announced so less of the handbags and glad rags

That’s the one I think will be sharing a headliner with Victorious festival actually (that’s what I go to so always poke my nose in here)

More lineup news soon

More on the way, what sort of names can we realistically expect?

Still needs the Thursday headliner right - should be a decently sized name. Cannot believe blossoms are a main one honestly, i like them and they will put on a great set but they are just poor when you look at Truck's headliners for instance.

Any idea when we should expect the next lot of acts?

[Boomtowner]

Anyone any idea when the next batch of acts for this will be announced. My best mate has tickets but not quite enough on the line up to tempt me just yet, but a couple of additions may just do it.

Not sure, but my expectations are low if the tramlines and truck second waves were anything to go by - barely worth the wait/announcement...

I’d agree with this.  Think most got their big names out to get ticket sales done.  Sure there’ll just be the odd filler now

More acts announced Tues 22 Feb next week

Who do we think the Thursday night headliner will be?

+ Some day splits I haven't seen before

Any thoughts?

[metalgear]

Lightning Seeds Thursday headliner please ! 

Suspect it maybe James though. 

[Jack.194]

Not expecting much for the announcement, is it at 6?

Yeah at 6.

Judging by Truck and Tramlines I’d not expect too much from it

[sisco]

Not bad additions at all

[thatTFBguy]

Not really anything for me but missus likes Jake Bugg so suppose that's a win. 
 

With Stereophonics/Pale Waves/Sundara Karma/Bloxx/Courteeners/Sea Girls/Blossoms/Vaccines/Vistas my ticket was already more than covered so I'm not complaining. 

[A costume of a man]

Bit better than expected tbh 🤏

[foolee]

Tempted for a ticket to this now. Good lineup with the bigger acts and very good smaller acts too. Just a bit far for us on the train. 

[Boomtowner]

Bought my tickets, enough added to make it worthwhile, definitely £125 worth of bands.

And that's without my research into bands I've never heard of

[efcfanwirral]

After hedging my bets and ending up with both Y Not and Kendal tickets last year I was waiting to make my final decision for this year, and I think Kendal has more for me because I'm seeing Courteeners, Blossoms and Manics at Neighbourhood Weekender, and Stereophonics on their tour. 

Dropping DMA's and Fontaines from last year is a big loss for me on Y Not too. 

This is a great lineup if I wasn't already seeing my biggest draws, and almost all the bands I'd like are on at Kendal (and pretty much everywhere else). Even if I sell these at a discount, which is looking likely, it'll cover a fair amount of the bar tab for Kendal!
