Does anyone know roughly when the combi tickets and camping sell out? My mates and i are thinking of going but want to wait to see who the final headliner is before commiting. Thanks

if it were acdc i would be extremely out of pocket

always said to my pal (a determined hater of acdc) that if they ever tour again i'll pay for his ticket to see them

tbh i wouldnt care. would pay anything to see them again. was my first ever gig and after well over 100 gigs and festivals since they're still easily in the top 3

[TheBoz]

Earliest combi tickets have ever sold out was somewhere end March/early April, so nothing to worry about.

Portishead and Interpol both announced for ATP Iceland 11 & 12 July, weekend after RW. and Interpol announced for Optimus Alive 10 July. Both contenders to be playing, expect them both there.

I actually wouldn't deem either of them a certainty. Interpol lost quite some popularity and relevance in recent years, and Dour is great at picking those kinds of acts up as headliners. Although they could still go for a major Barn spot. As for Portishead, their 2011 Werchter performance left them quite frustrated with playing major festivals. Although again, the new Barn could make a difference.

Not expecting names yet. Usually Werchter drops 20-30 names in the second half of January, so don't see the point in giving a few names now (unless it's a headliner/sub).

I think you mentioned(might of been someone else) that camping changing to a more pukkelpop style, I'm presuming that isn't this year?

[thetime]

I guess not, the (XL) camping ticket info on the website is still following the past divisions. But when the whole '4th stage being a night stage' thing was said on the radio, they also mentioned it not being on the festival site but instead somewhere where one of the campings used to be. So I assume those two things are connected and will be implemented all at once?

[Babyquack]

What I would do if Portishead played! Now THAT would be a dream! Interpol would be ok too

Going to get my ticket in the second half of January (when payday comes around) but I may wait till they announce a batch of artists this month as someone has mentioned they normally do?

[GuyCalledMark]

When was the first bulk of names added to line up last year? Around late January early February?

Well I would kill for those barn headliners, can't see it though as it's very 90s.

Other than that it does seem pretty strong and realistic, maybe positioning with the likes of biffy/kasabian.

[guitarbhoy1888]

i'm thinking theres potentail that i'll have clashes every night in the the barn and main stage.

complete opposite of last year where the only place where i wanted to be was main stage ...
