Do you think someone had the map upside down?

I find this so amusing, imagine when they worked it out someone must have been well pissed off that they hd to do it all again

The new Glade stage doesnt seem too BIG eh??
 

Surely they won’t have sides on it? Part of the greatness of the Glade was always how open it felt especially when it was under the tree’s.

Is that supposed to be the glade dome? Not very dome looking if so.

No, the Glade Dome is in the trees. This is the new Glade stage to replace the one that used to be in the trees

Its apparently the new Glade stage no? The Glade dome is where the Glade used to be haha. Why they’re changing it (budget cuts if thats true) we might never fully know. Wonder if they can’t afford the stage the Glade usually is and thats the reason. 
 

[Dave_c]

Ah right, got it.

[leath02]

Seen a suggestion that with the new repeaters in The Other field that the sound from that stage would bleed across into where The Glade was previously. Seemed like a plausible explanation to me. 

That along with the idea that moving it out allows the treeline to be used as a shaded relaxing area, which the site generally lacks and was quite apparent in 2019. Current weather reports make it look like we might be more grateful for shelter from the rain in those trees come the festival!

I think that could be the JP Tent being unloaded. Perhaps some erection action there tomorrow.

[JoeyT]

Also looks like the SH build crew may have arrived from LSTD so potential for things to get going there tomorrow.

Hmmm...I'm not seeing that they're that behind, if at all. Arcadia haven't arrived but as the spider has toured quite a number of times now, the team would be well versed by now with putting it up quickly. Rest of the site looks more as it has done at this stage in previous years with this many days to go. I'd only say that Silver Hayes looks a bit empty.

I’ve been told the SH build starts Saturday 11th.

Great spot - nothing gets past the watchful eyes on here!

[dotdash79]

Wateraid kiosk are going being installed

[Watergirl]

Does anybody have a fresh link for the webcam?  The obvious one is not working for me, and too many pages in this thread to search for the most recent one.

Can confirm they're delay towers. 3 new companies working together on the acoustics this year, sound should be lot better across site.

Any tech details on what they're going to be running on Other this year? Finally moving over to Martin like all the other big stages?

Maybe - I'm more in the "repeaters mitigate sound bleed" camp.

Hope they've something planned to stop this from happening at Glasto on the new (for Glasto) Lonely Hearts Club stage (as a precaution obviously because we've ordered the good dry stuff not the wet stuff).

 

[Losing my hair]

It's a glorious day down on the farm.

 

[watsonjm]

Is that the first Arcadia truck no in place?

[andymk]

Tolpuddle bar setup going well

crane action in worthy view

Scaffolding up for the charity signs/stalls by the Pyramid

 

[JoeyT]

Definitely something about to happen in JP field. Either this afternoon or tomorrow I think it'll be going up.

[Avalon_Fields]

And caravans have arrived since yesterday in the Silver Heyes area. Construction to start soon?

[JoeyT]

Still find it odd there's no trackway at all in the OS field yet. Looks naked.

This thing? I would assume so
