My view is we aren’t getting the full lineup (set times et al) until the final week of May. Which means they can take their time a bit more with the area announcements.

I think the full lineup will come 26th - 31st May region, leaning more towards 31st May. The reason why is because I think there will be lots of TBA’s on the bill. 

Emily said it would be June. Either way they have a bit more time than 2019 but (if I remember the but I did the other day correctly) we would still need an announcement on average every 3.5 days to fit them all in before June.

Thought she said it would be May? She seems to have deleted the tweet that said May for the full stage breakdowns when she was replying to Thingy etc. Suspicious. 

If it is June for the full lineup then I’m certain they have some TBA’s in the bag. Trying to keep it as quiet as possible that some big unannounced acts are showing up across the weekend.

Ooh.. I hadn't realised that tweet had gone, the others in the same series of questions seem to be there. Maybe it will be end of May.

Yes she’s silently deleted a few of her replies in that thread. Only the stuff about when the final lineup is out.

Oh bloody hell, how do I listen to acts announced late.  I just know I won't know most of them!  I guess I just identify the stages I know I usually like and prioritise listening to them..

Exactly this ! 

I had tried for 930am coach departure which would mean I could fly in from Dublin and go straight to coach, but got 830am so we fly in the night before and stay overnight. But that would be a lot of organising and extra cost if I had to do it all with less notice ! 

To be honest, I was quite disappointed not to stay overnight as it would have meant that I was there already and could enjoy an evening on my own knowing that all I had to do was get up in time to get the coach and that there could be no problems with trains to prevent me getting there.

Wtf how did I miss that. Wasn’t in her feed?

June it is then! We’ve got a lot of time to go.

[kingcrawler]

I suppose she could have just said June as in much closer to the festival, as I doubt they have a firm date planned for that so far ahead. End of May/first week in June as usual does make sense though.

I couldn't see it either 😁

Silver Hayes will do me until May honestly, should be a lot to sink my teeth into. Some more SE Corner would be nice - hold back the map for now to keep up the spider speculation i say!

Still another month for our coach times! 😞 

Does anyone know are they based on the initial booking so the 6 of us on that booking will be on the same coach rather than how we paid?

I'm pretty sure if you booked together as a group, you'll be on the same coach.

Full lineup with times have been pretty much the last day of May (give or take) for every festival since 2015, when it was 2nd June. Even though Emily said it’s coming in June, it’s not like it still couldn’t come out earlier, but realistically recent precedent suggests it would be right at the end of May anyway, so it’s kind of neither here nor there. We’ve got the Queens Jubilee BH on Friday 3rd of June, so if she’s true to her word 1st or 2nd of June seem likely.

Seems plausible that they will drop it just after the jubilee.

Yes I think you can make arguments for before or after but I guess after makes a bit more sense. I don’t think any potential TBAs will make a difference as I’d imagine they’d actually want a few on the poster to add to the excitement.

Edit looking at the thingy in 2011 it was 13th June!

Lizzy can't be expected to have Glastonbury clashes on her mind over her special weekend. They'll drop it after, so she can mess around with the clashfinder as she recovers.

Easier when we've got the set times - a load of stuff ruled out by must sees then focus listening on the gaps

Has she ever visited the festival? I know some of the minor royals have come for a party. Surely she must have a trip to the farm on her bucket list.

She probably doesn’t even know where she is at this point. Expecting her to pass not long after this jubilee. (Sorry for morbid).

Reckon we’ll have a big one tomorrow to ease the comedown out of the long weekend.

Silver Hayes is my bet.
