As deposits have been paid we have a contract as such.. it is going to be very difficult to un ravel this if the worst was to happen

Maybe Glastonbury could house all ticket holders in large halls across Somerset in the 2.5 weeks before the festival, swabbing us on entry, after two weeks when the results are in.. the clean are allowed into the pre-erected super fence and the infected released downstream. 
 

Obviously all who are allowed in will be provided with ration books, as no food will be allowed past the boundary lines during the festival to prevent a corona breach.

Case confirmed in Bradford now, it will spread like wild fire now, we have some good people here but we also have so scruffy tw@ts, already hearing rumours that they went shopping after they was told to self quarantine as they needed some shopping

Two in Leeds as well. Not connected though. I believe the Bradford case has just come back from Italy while the two in Leeds were in Iran.

I'm at the Levellers gig in Liverpool - no one here bothered about the nu-flu...

We don’t have a contract of any sort. We’ve paid a deposit to attend a music festival. Worse comes to it they’ll cancel and refund, nothing more complicated than that.

How long until someone on here’s infected? 

Anyone fancy a sweepstake?

I think the 3000 toilets are worse than the Louvre after a few hours, let alone 5 days 🙂

I doubt COVID-19 would survive the long drops. In fact, that may be the solution

Quote on the BBC: "Matt Hancock said the UK was still in the "containment" phase of the outbreak. He said the government contingency plans, which will be published this week, included banning big events."

We still dont' know yet, and I'm still getting ready for June, but it does seem to be moving that way.

I think if there's an announcement on banning big events, it won't stretch to June for the time being. I know France's is indefinite, but Switzerland's is mid-March. I imagine at most two months.

Sounds like Ilkley, I think a school ski trip that closed its school was from that area

Nice plan - although presumably plenty of those with clean swabs on the way in will catch it during the 2.5 weeks.

I imagine the GFL T&Cs will be well thought out and include an option for the organisers to cancel. I’ve never read them despite having ticked a box to say I have several times!

Yeah exactly this. It's no different to buying a holiday and then the holiday being cancelled due to government advice about terrorism or something.

As long as my symptoms kick in on the Monday I’d be fine with it.

I'm shocked how much I visit this thread,  I've not got a ticket. I shouldn't be bothered about a highly unlikely cancellation. 🙄

Motorcycle GP. Don't care.

Grand prix. Don't care.

Horse racing. Don't care. 

Football. Don't care. 

Rugby. Little bit peeved but I will recover.

The only thing I care about is people remaining healthy, especially those close to me. I shall no longer ride this rollercoaster and look forward to my first festival in May. Shindig here I come....   oohhhhh FFS. 

See you all tomorrow.

I'm just taking a trip to the tumbleweed factory.

Tumbleweed is a naturally occurring phenomena. An accumulation of specific dried out plants most commonly found in arid environments. There's no such place as a Tumbleweed factory.
