Imagine the crowds moving between those stages will be a bit mental. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Think I’ve got an hour to get to West Holts for Young Fathers after Churnups.... which may even allow time for a swift pint/bite to eat.

Though I think it will manifest itself in the crowd going back further into the field than problematic crushes towards the front. Yep. Top tip if/when the field gets rammed and, like me, you don’t deal with that so well - loads of people will have packed up camp already, so there’ll be little oases of grass to be had further out with pretty good sight lines. We watched Di-Ro from just through the hedge towards Hawkwell after bailing on Macca entirely* due to crowd density. *no regrets, Jamie T was great and I saw Macca in ‘04.

Especially with his passing I'm sure lots will want to be there. Should wheel out a DJ desk before Elton during the change over and give em 45 mins to bring the tunes Sister Bliss is playing twice. Stonebridge on the Thursday, and after midnight at the Glade main stage on Friday late. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gfa Posted June 4, 2023 Report Share Posted June 4, 2023 1 hour ago, gordong said: Based on the line up and stage times, which artists do you think are likely to result in overcrowding this year? Some immediate ones that come to mind: •Fred Again… on Other Stage •Nia Archives at Nowhere Stage on Thursday night •Chemical Brothers at Arcadia Chems will be fine, Hot Chip and Four Tet (along with several other good SE corner options) will eat into the dance crowd i think. definitely will get busy near the end once stages start wrapping up Wizkid must be in with a shout!

I expect his set to be pretty dead-ish tbh - Megan Thee Stallion levels from last year. Not exactly my wheelhouse so maybe I’m totally off with that - we’ll see.

Was surprised they’ve put that on the Thursday with relatively little other live music. Should be a really fun set that one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
4AssedMonkey Posted June 4, 2023 Report Share Posted June 4, 2023 In all honesty with WG gone I was expecting Thurs to be awful, but I reckon they’ve done a decent job of putting enough stuff around the site to spread things. Sure, there willl be busy venues at times but nothing mental. Looking at the Thursday thread, loads of different suggestions. Which is A Good Thing. Elton may be one of the busiest headline slots ever. I expect it to be chaos. FBS and Lottery Winners at Greenpeace will be rammed. Just because it’s a smaller enclosed area.

A few of my friends want to do both of these things but after being stuck in the Arcadia/Park squash last year, I’m not feeling so sure… I don't think that'll be two bad. Theres huge paths round, if you stick to the left of the pyramid you've got a couple of options for routes through silver Hayes or BBC intro and can then choose to either go in the front or round the back. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sure I remember seeing pictures from just behind the sound desk and it was pretty sparse, although I could be getting her mixed up with somebody else.

Amy Lawn Posted June 4, 2023 Report Share Posted June 4, 2023 Wasn't massive but wasn't small enough to be called a small crowd, quite a bit bigger than LCD or massive attack were when they headlined Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
