2024 Festival

[she bangs the drums]

Gates open at Leeds, long long queue 

[footix2]

Chevron stage will not be opening. Main Stage is going to be rammed all day. Bit crap if you are day ticket holder, obviously cant be helped though 

[Followill]

Chevron stage gone today at Leeds, Friday is done for!

[BenG92]

Build a massive new stage

Don't put a headliner on it for 1 of 3 nights

Forced to close it for 1 night

 

Imagine if Prodigy pull out tomorrow for some reason, Christ

[Andre91]

Chevron Stage closed all day at Leeds now too. So no Skrillex. My whole group are so gutted; we were all most hyped for him today. 

[Followill]

The pessimist in me says those stages are not going to open at all this weekend 

[crumbler]

Nia Archives basically the only thing of note for me at Leeds today so I'd be gutted. 

 

Not quite as pressing but anyone know when the iPlayer stream starts?

[crumbler]

 

Aw, what a waste.

Secret set reading introducing stage at 17:30 TBA

This will be Big Special. They mentioned they’d be playing a secret set somewhere around this time. 

[wghennessy]

Radio 1, Chevron and Aux all closed all day at Leeds. I get its the weather but a refund of some sort has to happen surely.

Big Special are ace. Would recommend

[Chavmeisterdeluxe]

Spiritbox not being on the stream is annoying 

[Andre91]

DJ Target and Krept & Konan are doing some sort of unannounced set at Leeds. If that’s a secret set… deary me.

Either that or Eco Camp; they’re about the only things open 😂

[Chapple12345]

Renee Rapp has seemingly fallen off the lineup too for Leeds

I know it's something completely out of Organisers hands but I can totally understand people's frustrations around all this 

[theshapeofpunktocome123]

Feel bad for those attending today … but hope it’s smooth sailing tomorrow for blink , spiritbox and both neck deep sets !

[charlierc]

You wouldn't have known it was August huh

I'd be surprised, don't festivals well cover themselves with T+Cs saying the likes of "lineup subject to change" 

[Cammers]

Don’t see a problem with Chevron at Leeds.

 

The LED strip and stage screen took some damage but they’ve been successfully testing the whole thing since mid-afternoon (minus sound). 
 

Speaking to some stewards, the issue is speaker cables being tangled? 😂 They’ve binned off the whole thing because of some twisted cables?! They had 5-7 hours to fix that before the later acts were due on. 

 

 

[Cammers]

I get why R1 tent is shut and I’m not entirely sure how you fix that 😬

21 Savage was an embarrassment at Leeds. 50 minutes scheduled, his MC played 39 minutes of crowd pleasers and 21 Savage had an 11 minute set. Absolute embarrassment and shows where this festival is.

Bass is ridiculous on the chevron could barely hear two door over it

Yeah, I was in front of the main stage sound tower, and could hear chevron the whole time. 
 

Cinnamon has a smaller crowd than two door, no surprise

Was Cinnamon that expected to struggle to draw a crowd?

 

I can guess that Chevron might be louder than his work tbf.
