Freya Ridings, Mel C and Gabrielle Aplin headlining?

Neville Staple, Xavier Rudd, and Vintage Trouble have all headlined the Avalon Stage in previous years so could be any of those.

2016, post shift, shattered and grumpy from the mud I spent hours moving between Avalon Stage and Cafe finding  some gems to watch and left the area in a much better mood.

A few ales from the Avalon pub also helped 😀

Could definitely be swayed by Mel C or Will Young if I had a gap in my schedule, but given they (especially the former) will undoubtedly have massive crowds, I’ll probably end up giving them a swerve after having to watch Sugababes from outside the tent last year.

What sort of slot are Elvana likely to command? was hoping they’d have been a Thursday option but obviously not if Avalon only runs Friday to Sunday 

bloody good question. They were daytime greenpeace stage or 1am truth stage in 2019, and then thursday williams green at about 8pm in 2022, so id put them around 6pm avalon - possibly on sunday for people who fancy an alternative to the pyramid tv snoozeathon slot?

Eh not much on there for me which is disappointing as I've had some good times at Avalon over the years. 

Sums up this year's line up as a whole for me but trying to view it as a positive as lots of time to spend exploring elsewhere without being stuck to a strict schedule!

opposite or around Elton John time is the only hope of it not being the sort of safety issue they got a slapped wrist for last year...

Selfishly, I hope not. Not going to miss Elton for anything but Melanie C is very high up on my to see list.

Really don't get all the negative comments here. This line-up seems very much in line with what Avalon have done in the past, which to be fair is a little 'Radio 2'. I would have thought Will Young would be hitting big with the noughties pop fans who mobbed the scene for SugaBabes and McFly. Or am I wrong? Not my bag anyway.

Nothing here that I'd miss Reg for, but maybe half a dozen acts that I'd like to catch. I like the area as well. Always seems very easy to get in and see acts and get to the bar.

Yea it's text book Avalon, i.e. reassuringly poor. Which is why I'm not disappointed as it's what I expect.

Avalon was always a stage I looked for some alternative acts, though slightly disappointing for me this year.  I will dip in and take on board some of the recommendations on here, but there is always something to see and do across the site, so not too bothered.

Will definitely keep out of the way when some of the popular acts are on, as it is carnage when it is rammed.

Isn't your usual theme "not much for me...but I don't go there anyway" 

I'd only been noticing recently what a ray of positivity you'd become (not being sarcy btw) 

I think they've got some great stuff on.

    • So, that Survation poll...Reform have replaced the Tories as the main right party, and Restore are where Reform used to be as the fringe extreme right party gaining support. Grim. What happened to one nation liberal tories?
