Friday morning resale perhaps?

I hope we get a couple of cool little acts for Thursday too, something along the lines of

The Night Cafe
The Japanese House
Fatherson
Mallory Knox

mallory knox are too big for a thursday spot surely...

[ShorttyE]

Not going to be anyone great as they have to slot under feeder who aren't much to write home about any more in terms of size.

However I'm hoping for one more decentish name to be under them, Mallory Knox is a good shout I guess.

Not expecting anything amazing though, unless they do have another big push on thursday entry /more tickets on friday

Can't say I've heard of any of them, Will have to have a listen 

[Cammers]

I have only heard of Liam Bailey and that's only from C&S - Blind Faith.

Thursday was only a bonus to me anyway so I'm not really bothered that this was a pretty rubbish announcement.

Is there still a slot to fill on Main Stage on Friday or will the stage just open slightly later?

Same here- happy to have a few beers at the campsite and then have a wander around before Feeder 

[Wagon]

Last year we didn't get the early entry, is there much to do on the Thursday?

We're bringing our 2 young children so hoping there is something to keep them entertained

[ShorttyE]

Yeah pretty Meh for Thursday.

With feeders recent stuff and the acts before hand it is going to be a very mellow and slow Thursday night.

Skints are OK For what they are, but what they are is a slow, realtively dull after a while Reggae/Ska act, I use the word ska loosely.

Still will be nice background music.

What stage do they use for the Thursday Nights these days?

Main stage for Thursday. There were a lot more people in for early entry last year than in 2015.

Anyone had a link through for the pre-sale of tickets tonight? Bit of a shambles, this...

TBF I'd be happy with Feeder and The Skints and Liam Bailey will chuck in one C&S cover.

[jackarmy]

You can't ask for too much really. Think it cost an extra £20 or so which is fair enough for Feeder, and anything else is a bonus.

Having missed out on Glasto I'm just buzzing for a festival now, can't wait until that first beer in the campsite on Thursday afternoon!

I've not been to y-not festival since 2011. I can't remember if it's the kind of festival where I can take my own beer wherever I like rather than just the main arena. Can anyone let me know?

Sorry folks. I got offers straight away on the FB page so they're all promised for now. I will get back to you if this falls through. Hope you find some tickets somewhere else! I did see someone selling them on FB market place... xx

Officially, no. But you don't get patted down or anything. There's just a couple of stewards stood at the entrance to the arena so put a can or two down your shorts and you're golden. Basically they only take drinks off you if they're in your hand or whatever. That's what it was like the past two years anyway.

No beer in main arena. But they wasn't that strict last year as long as you didn't flaunt it when entering arena area. However the festival maybe different this year with new owners/promoters. 

Plenty of decent and different ale in the arena area.
