Thank god for all ye crafty boardsies!

the bloody map .. so close and yet so far .. why not just overlay it on the google satellite view instead of overlaying it on some ****ty (not to scale??) drawn image?

It looks like an easy enough job to edit my map from last year and plug it into Festable... will give that a go tonight.

You are the man.

Orbital definitely the Friday, had a picture of the two lads with the lights in the special guest spot on the main stage Friday. Now changed to a picture of the main stage. Wtf are they at 😂

I wouldn't trust the scale on the map tbh. It looks like the SKOW stage will be bigger than last year and the Road to Nowhere stage is the same place (and size?) as last year's SKOW.

To be fair both of these tents weren't very big last year, and as seeing they tripled the volume of tickets , it makes sense that they should be much bigger!

Honestly, considering it was the first year here were only minor issues such as not enough toilets, shuttle bus etc. Site itself was really well organised in my opinion. I seem to remember pr and marketing weren't great last year either and for me it was in no way a reflection of how the actual festival was run

i wasn't there last year but my bro was and he had a blast!

Q - were the attendees happy or not with the shuttle bus situation from portlaw last year?

ATN say that feedback said they weren't - hence they have changed the system this year.. (must to Portlaw's dismay)

Inflatable church is back, it's on the map as "Activity". As is the "Melodic Woods" btw, so still not totally sure what that's about

I'm eying this up, have a few friends in boutique. Is there much of a slope in the campsite?

Presuming the camping area is greatly expanded this year? It wasn't big enough last year and this year as an extra 5-8k people at it.

Just bought myself some wellies as I can't find mine, and the forecast is getting worse by the day.

ATN just confirmed to me on Facebook that they are using larger marquees this year, so all good.

That's me sold. As good as hot chip are it's probably always a good rule to go with the act you haven't seen before if torn between two. Saturday and Sunday look to be 2 great days of music.

I'm in same conundrum - I'll be seeing Hot Chip in Olympia in October. I saw Jon Hopkins at B&S last year and previously in tent at EP, he was amazing. Tent atmosphere will top last year's main stage performance I'm inclined to think.. .

This wasnt part of the campsite last year so this is a wait and see job I think

Yea I think the feedback was that the times weren't good and portlaw town was overrun?

I don't really know though, I'm my own shuttle bus

Think.they sold 12k tickets last year it didn't sell out, an extra 8k on site this year will be a noticeable difference

from looking at the map, it seems like the general campsite will be in a different place this year?
map says the Both Sides Now campsite goes all the way around the far side of the woods from the main stage/Something Kind of Wonderful stage field? All the way around to the Podpad/Tangerine Fields area...

unless they've cut down a good few trees, I don't really see how it's possible...

Maybe 2 separate fields, slightly divided by trees (which aren't on the map)?








using last year's map, it would appear that the great big green space in the bottom right (to the right of the logo), is now general camping?

Bring cash, queues for ATMs at festivals are always extremely long.
Not sure about vendors taking card, Knockanstockan said their vendors were taking cards but no one I ordered from were taking it.

I'm getting a lift down with someone that's staying in general camping, and I'm staying in boutique, will it likely be hassle to get dropped in one car park and then for them to drive to the other?

Yes, they are miles apart .

Is there traffic restrictions though? It's a five min drive but 40 min walk

Overlapping the map on the app with Google maps shows this new camping area is in a forest.. unless there is an entirely new field open.

Only 12k yea? Surprised at that I thought it was very close to selling out on the actual week of.

Sunday day tickets did significantly swell the crowds tho and they're not doing that this year.

Looks considerably bigger in size so I'd say we will be grand with the extra peeps

Nope 7k last year, but it didnt sell out

I’m really sorry to see my happy place from last year go - One Love area in the woods. SKOW May be the same music but it was the secluded location, small crowd and wonderful vibe that I liked the most about it. Oh well, will just have to go wandering again and perhaps find something else similar, something kind of wonderful perhaps.

Would there be anything wrong with having camping in a forest? Probably health and safety etc etc.?
