Agree with most of that, but Travis will be second top on one of the days

Chances of Skindred playing opposite Courteeners? I could maybe get on board with Skindred, Fatboy and The Prodigy as headliners.

Probably unlikely, the Parklands headliners usually clash with the main stage second top slot, leaving more people free to watch the headliners, at least that's what it was in 2022 and 2023, I watched The Cribs and then made the start of Supergrass.  can anyone confirm it was the same this year? 

 

 Woodlands and Calling Out headliners will be on at the same time as Courteeners so I reckon you'll find something. I'm hoping one of those is good for me on Fatboy Slim night. Would love The Royston Club to do Calling Out that night

With Truck, Tramlines etc. announcing their lineups, are there any smaller acts you’re expecting might get the nod at Kendal?

Hopefully some good names added over the next 2 weeks

Corella and Divorce are the first two additional acts announced. Third to follow today.

Full 12 Days Of Christmas Advent Calendar additions:

 

+ Corella (Main Stage Thursday)

+ Divorce (Calling Out)

+ Moonchild Sanelly

+ The Covasettes 

+ Jaackmaate's Happy Hour Silent Disco Takeover (Woodlands Friday Night)

+ L'Objectif

+ Freak Slug

+ Nina Nesbitt (Main Stage)

+ The Lilacs

+ Picture Parlour (Calling Out)

+ High Contrast & Dynamite MC (Parklands Friday Night)

+ The Academic (Main Stage)

 

All info about stages/days taken from the wording of each artist reveal. I think the one act a day situation is really good personally, and there's been some nice little additions in the line up here. Was glad to see Corella and The Academic in the mix, and because of how they've done it I've given a bit more attention to some of these bands than if they were just lumped in a big batch reveal. Looking forward to checking out Divorce, L'Objectif and Picture Parlour (clashes dependent)

Just had a proper look at the lineup. Pretty underwhelming IMHO. Expensive just for a load of tat.

First stage has been announced along with a few additions:

Had wrongly assumed Elvana would be headlining in the woods. Is he on the main stage ?

[efcfanwirral]

Stone or Sports Team are a good alternative for me when Fatboy Slim is on! Looking forward to the full day splits

No I don't think so, the poster has stars next to Thursday acts, so far only Kaiser Chiefs and Sophie Ellis-Bextor.

I would imagine very shortly. I thought they would've done it by now. Possibly next few weeks

That's not actually that great apart from Sunday, Friday is awful. 

 

Friday I'd go in for two acts maybe, Saturday 3, Sunday basically the main stage from the Lancashire hotpots onwards. Definitely not worth the 4 hours plus journey to get there.

[Comfy Bean]

Elvana > Courteeners is a decent Friday 🕺 🍻

Extremely excited for Prodigy after watching the glasto stream on the beeb

Do we have a map for 2025 yet? (sorry, I'm a newbie) And can someone please tell me how small/big the festival is? Like how far is the walk from the carpark to camping? Or from camping to the village/main arena? ☺️ Thanks in advance

Not yet. There's been one going round of the layout of the campsites but not of the arena yet.

 

In terms of the distance this google maps that someone made of last year should give you a good idea. If you click on a campsite, i.e. Haye Parks it should tell you the time/distance to arena/car park etc. Bear in mind this year it might be different layout.

here is the map Goer referenced.



Note that tangerine fields has moved, and quiet camping has moved from Haye Parks to part of The Shire.

Newbie question, are there are any facilities for washing up? Or is it just a case of filling a bowl from a water point?

If it's general camping then yeah, maybe a sink here and there but not really many
