Because I could really do with nearly 100 quid right now. Highly doubt tickets for the day will sell out next year if they didn’t this year. I could really do with €700, plus €900 for the 4 nights accommodation I booked, and €400 for the ferry. Seriously hoping to be able to get a refund soon !! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VCK Posted May 9, 2020 Report Share Posted May 9, 2020 (edited) It's inevitable it's gone this year. Last news story on the official website is from March, they haven't updated it since. It's just a case of when they're going to break the news. For the best really, the line-up is shite. Edited May 9, 2020 by VCK 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That would require every single act on the lineup to have the exact same touring plans next year, remain equally as popular as they were at the time the lineup for this year was announced, no more appealing acts become available etc etc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And if better options become available, they're not gonna pass on them just to keep the lineup the same as this years. What would be the point in that?

Sdsm123 Posted May 10, 2020 Report Share Posted May 10, 2020 (edited) Has anyone just gained some hope that 2020 may happen? I’m not getting my hopes too high just feel there is some hope Edited May 10, 2020 by Sdsm123 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dum surfer Posted May 10, 2020 Report Share Posted May 10, 2020 Boris speech was an incoherent mess and is just playing with the lives of the working class using them as guinea pigs to see if its safe to move things forward, large outdoor gatherings should not be allowed to go ahead until the virus no longer poses a threat I.e. when a vaccine is available If reading does go ahead it will be utterly irresponsible 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably just wishful thinking though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree it would be totally irresponsible to hold a 3 day event. Most people are there the day before and leave the day after, so 5 days. The Royal Berks couldn’t cope. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FestivalJamie Posted May 10, 2020 Report Share Posted May 10, 2020 (edited) This thread is going round and round in circles. It's obviously not happening, the cancellation announcement is imminent now. And no, I wouldn't be happy if 105,000 came to my town and brought the coronavirus in and made it the most infected town in the whole of Britain. There's so many reasons this cannot go ahead.
