Looking at the names in the lineup, I find it impossible to know who was already on it and who has been added.

Yeah i think it was posted just so they had an updated poster with Blossoms on it, no other additions yet

[Dukey]

More acts added to both lower down the lineup. 
 

Stage splits coming next week.

Doesn't say "more to be announced" anymore, so I'm presuming that is all the music acts announced now. That looks like 3 stages of music to me. I think that is one less than last year?

Last year had Main, Chevron, FR and introducing in terms of music stages then you had some brand stages and the Aux. Will be interesting to see what comes out next week. Might make it clearer what 2.0 actually means.

Had a dig at what splits might look like (for Leeds):

 

Fri - 

 

Main - Chase and Status / Florence / Role Model / Blossoms (SG) / The K's / Arthur Hill / Dylan John Thomas / Westside Cowboy / The Clause

 

New Stage - Kneecap / Kettama / Duke Dumont / Holly Humberstone / Paris Paloma / December 10 / Violet Grohl / Alex Spencer / Kilu

 

Sat - 

 

Main - Charli XCX / Fontaines / Skepta / Geese / Skye Newman / Keo / Overpass / Rose Gray / Unpeople

 

New Stage - Declan McKenna / James Marriott / DJ EJ / Florence Road / Clementine Douglas / Cardinals / Bleech 9:3 / Vilanelle / Day We Ran 

 

Sun - 

 

Main - Dave / Raye / Sombr / ??? (Gunna at Reading) / Kingfishr / Nine Vicious / Maisie Peters / Slayyyter / Clara La San

 

New Stage - Jade / Josh Baker / Rossi / Absolutely / Speed / Gurriers / Basht / Cruz Beckham & the Breakers / Ruby Roberts 

 

I'm guessing alongside the Warehouse there's likely going to be another stage as there's a number of smaller acts not included in those two stages above (possibly just BBC Intro)

Great. I'm still waiting to see if FLO&M and Loyle Carner are on the same stage or whether they are going to clash

If they're announcing day splits 'this week' they've left it very very late

Still nothing...totally dire from them, just when you think it couldn't get any worse.

2 weeks later and still nothing 

I wonder if somethings happening behind the scenes 

[enthused]

they seem to be having a nightmare

[KJP98]

Was thinking last night.

 

Are Kasabian/Arkayla/Lathums playing on the main stage at Leeds fest on the Thursday? Can see that being dead as f**k if so.

I'm so out of touch I can't tell if they're made up names or actual acts 🤣

 

Sounds believable enough!! 

[andyrhodes24]

Leeds United playing at home on Leeds fest weekend for the first time in god knows how long. Can we read anything into that? Only Brentford who probably won’t sell their 3,000 tickets but still

That’s odd. Maybe council know more about the ticket sales and they’ve said no worries lads because Leeds fest is gonna be empty.

Fixtures aren’t out for league one yet, we only get about 8,000 at home so I doubt it would be a problem!

Piss poor at best mate. Mental, I think every year for the past couple of years we say the same thing, and they literally do not care - they will still get 15 year old ket heads going, regardless who they book
