I don't remember anybody ever saying that.

All of those stages were briefly listed in 2019 on the official line up before they were pulled a few hours later. A few people managed to scrape the page which is why they got their full lineups listed.

I think because 2017 was noticeably bad for crowd control in the south east corner and they must have thought that not listing the south east corner when it’s literally the only DJs on would help keep numbers manageable. And it worked well in 2019

I think pretty much all Commons and Block9 will be on apart from Genosys, IICON and The Common

 

What time do you reckon they will be on from?

In 2016 (my first- baptism of mud!) there was an amazing ceremony after around 9.30 Wed night above the Stone Circle before the fireworks, apart from burning the Phoenix  there were fire dancers, chanting monks, incantations and blessings... really fantastic start to things. In 2019 though I couldn't find anything similar... or did I just miss it? Is this announced anywhere or does it just happen? Hope so...

Make new friends at the eFests meet, then stagger along to the fireworks display. Surely.

I remember Gaia's Guardians doing something up there (all dressed in red) that year.

With Wednesday looking sparse anything that is on will surely be rammed. I’m still holding out hope that there’s a bit more happening than what’s been announced.

I am wondering that. Thinking is Strummerville open and worth being at when the phoenix is being burned?

Go all out and ruin the rest of the festival as you lay in a crippled pile on thursday morning realising that you're not as young as you used to be.  Then drink through it and compound your misery by making the same mistake again.

i can confirm this is fully what i plan on doing

[Skoo]

Tbh, Thursday is the day I usually ruin myself, it's the day I start drinking upon waking.

I saw that the rocket lounge has some bits and bobs happening Wednesday eve so will likely head there.

Wednesday at about 10ish. 

There's actually 2 or 3 phoenix's in the fields adjoining the stone circle to split the crowds, all with a great fireworks view.

With them having the memorial burning on Sunday night, do you still think the Wednesday Pheonix burning will still happen?

Anyone see the trees on fire in 2019 when the phoenix got out of hand? Could have sworn I saw I fire engine

Any news if the big silent disco in Silver Hayes will be there this year? Convinced that run last time on Wednesdays. Can't find any info online.

[Familiar2billions]

A few celebration beers at camp once we've dropped our tents on the floor (one of the best beers in the world), then once pitched up just stroll around and take it all in. It gets ectic enough from Thursday onwards so it's nice to do Wednesday with nothing planned. That said, tradition dictates always going up the viewing hill early evening for sunset. Such an amazing first meet up spot to gather friends and all see in the start of the festival.

Was definitely a silent disco at cinemageddon with Fatboy slim on the wednesday in 2019.
