Todays run

*audio by TSHA ( hmmmm not for me gov)

*trackway being laid into the other stage field from peri track behind the pyramid.  Presumably to load in the Other stage.

*trees being cleared from behind permaculture. 

* West Holts coming along

* machinery up at the Park.

*  pegs out marking out stalls in Avalon field.

* nothing happening at Arcrania

* VERY busy at Ped gate A . lots of deliveries.

* no rain. Not a drop. Dusty as Gandhi 's flip flop.

Lovely, staging is going well on the pyramid

Hope the rain stays away, heading down camping in a few weeks time!

It is. We stayed away from this area. Too much like the M25 at the moment

I’m sure it’s the same every year but amazed how quickly West Holts is progressing! It was only 9 days ago I was there and nothing really happening.

Almost like they know what they are doing 🙂 …. I’m just wish this one was in view of the webcam

Absolutely!

My concern is if they’re starting a fair bit earlier this year then I assume they’ll be closing the site off earlier too. In fact I think I saw a post this week saying the signs are up saying it’s closed from May?

I'm more worried they moved the festival forward a couple of weeks but forgot to tell any of us 😅.

If that’s the case it’s about time we started the “Have you got your ticket yet?” thread. Nothing like ticket anxiety starting a few weeks earlier than normal. 
I both love and hate that thread each year 😄

Seeing those screen towers clearly this morning, I reckon we are getting bigger screens this year. Got to be, not sure what else they could be.

Stuff being dropped off where the ribbon tower is

Certainly starting to get busy on site, think it'll step up another gear after the bank holiday too.  I think can see some of the Glade appearing in the woods?

[Junglist1981]

God I’m gonna get next to nothing done now until July 😁

[dotdash79]

Guys I think it might actually be happening

Deebeedobbee posted a photo of the first glade canopy on a few days back so I’d imagine a few more are on now 

[Junglist1981]

fwiw with the bigger screen talk and speculation, the side stage looks to be exactly the same length as before. Is there actually enough room on each side for more screen structure stuff?Particularly to the right of the stage as we look at it? It’s quite a tight space once everything is in.

I wish I had better stage production vocabulary lol

Optimistic. You've got at least a month of post-festival dissection to take you through to August.

The previous/current screens are pretty small, they could fit much bigger ones even in the same size towers, so maybe they’re the same size but need to be beefed up/reconfigured to hold bigger ones?

Looking at that even if they widen them that won’t cause any issues from what I can see there … clearly loads of room to make them taller

They've definitely got the space to increase the footprint of the trussing, if desired - on both sides, in both directions. Because there's hardly any depth involved, it doesn't matter what's behind it - they only run out of space at the point they hit an access route. The staging running in front of the screens isn't going to be much of a determining factor either.
