2000 Trees 2024

[Hart Attack]

Has anyone heard anything about The Xcerts playing There Is Only You in full for their Wednesday Forest set? I remember reading about it somewhere back when they were announced, but can't find any official announcement or confirmation...

That was me who posted it. The band themselves told a friend of mine about the set at the start of the year but I've not heard or seen anything about it since so I'm not sure if it's still in the pipeline.

Looking for some band recommendations! Into anything a bit weird, (seeing less of this on this year's lineup, as far as I can see), anything math-rock or Midwest emoish. Or anything just downright fun, going with my girlfriend who isn't super familiar with this music so trying to find bands she'll have a great time seeing no matter what 

[Andrinald]

From what you've said:

 

Into It. Over It., Michael Cera Palin, Sweet Pill, awakebutstillinbed, Los Campesinos!, Spanish Love Songs, Turnover, Blanket, Katie Malco, unpeople, NOBRO, Single Mothers

 

might all be up your street

Am I right in thinking the store on site doesn't sell ice? Had thought about bringing a cooler but just realised that may be pointless. I understand they want people to buy beers from the bar (would be doing that anyway), but being able to have a cold one in the campsite makes a difference (especially if it's hot). Has anyone found a work-around for this?

Definitely has done in the past but that was years ago I got some so not sure if it still does.

I bought a very expensive bag of ice last year. Was from a big silver caravan looking thing just inside the gate to the arena.

First time at Trees this year and looking forward to it. Two questions for people who have been before:

 

- Is there showers on site?

- Can you buy cans on site, or do I need to bring them with me?

 

THANKS!

It's my first time but my research indicates:

- Yes, showers on site at a £5/visit (may have went up last year).

- No, can't buy cans. Take a few cans with you but they will go warm, so support the bars where you can.

Will be my first 2000 Trees, and was delighted to see Arbor Ales providing the beer (albeit a shame that Deya aren't given they are fully local whilst Arbor are Bristol).  Should be some quality to choose, especially after the dire booze sold at Glastonbury every year.  So bars well worth supporting!

Had a terrible initial experience with Arbor Ales a few years back when my brother presented me with this: https://www.beer52.com/shop/product/arbor-ales/faked-alaska-pudding-ipa/3332

 

Honestly found it undrinkable but looking forward to some less sweet sickening IPA's and Pale Ale's from them.

Hopefully you'll be plesantly surprised!

I'd say Guilt Trip are a great booking on such short notice. Saw them at Slam Dunk and they go hard. Clearly been picking up momentum as a band recently too

Strange The Sleeping Souls aren't playing anymore, confirmed Frank will still have the full band for his main stage set.

No

First time at the festival this year. Cant wait. A few questions for those who've been before? How busy does arrival get on Wednesday? Is there usually an app?

Not overly, though I go VIP so that's probably less busy in general.

 

No app, no.

They were due to play a separate day (Thursday vs Saturday) so guess it doesn't work for them logistically foe whatever reason.

[Alex Winstone]

Do you need a parking ticket if you're only doing one day? 

[foolee]

Got Better Lovers with Unpeople supporting on Wednesday in Bristol and then arriving for the Friday evening and whole day Saturday.

I would imagine so

[nowyouregideon]

Has there been any word about the football being shown on Wednesday?
