Stage times

[Fred Zepplin]

Do they announce all the stage times before the festival or do you have to wait till you get there to plan who to see?

Also what times are main stages open?

Last year was the first time they were officially revealed in advance: on the Tuesday before they were released to the phone app (and from there they ended up on the usual clashfinder websites). However, only 10 of the stages (out of 23 I think) were listed on the app; hopefully that will be rectified with this year's app.

In previous years, the organisers' master spreadsheet has leaked a few days in advance, which was much more useful!

Oh, and the main stage is open 11:30am to 11:30pm or thereabouts, the Big Top from midday to 4am, and other stages vary but most go on until at least 2am. I think the latest close last year was the comedy & cabaret tent's silent disco, which kept going until 6am.
