Losing my hair Posted March 29, 2023 Report Share Posted March 29, 2023 4 minutes ago, CaledonianGonzo said: So last year the reason ole Spiddy the Spider felt a little bit reduced in scope was the absence of those elbow extender things? Well I never. (And the inflatable balls around the base) The ball things around the base and the arm bits were used in the Metamorphosis show which they didn't bring last year, so I suspect that's why the arms were missing.

It was reduced in size several years ago when Arcadia started to get non Glastonbury bookings. It was so that it could then fit inside 40 foot shipping containers which made transporting it much easier and cheaper. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ohhh interesting. Planning out the new venue and walkways. Confirms there's at least something there this year that's probably not just food.

MEGATRONICMEATWAGON Posted April 1, 2023 Report Share Posted April 1, 2023 With Williams Green, couldn't they just place a bigger tent there to fit more people in? As for Woodsies and the surrounding wood, could they not create a more unified/connected area, sort of like the Park and have more venues dotted around that area? I feel with the name change and the Wood right there, they must have a vision of that corner having potential for something more than what's there currently. With the new installations like Cinemaarmegeddon and Glastonbury-On-Sea, I can see the former making way before the latter. The latter could certainly expand into the camping area it sits in, with more stands dotted around. Cinemarmaggeddon feels more likely to be culled given it takes up roughly a quarter the size of the Park, yet must hold far less than a quarter of what the Park holds. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Williams green issue is about the set up of the paths around it and the scheduling. No tent could hold that many people if there's nothing against it on site, and there's no way for them to easily close off that area as it's major through route across the site on that side of the valley. Whatever comes in its place I'd expect to be set out a little more like BBC introducing this year, and be in its own field they can close more easily. Woodsies, I absolutely agree and have been saying they need to treat it more like the park! Glastonbury on sea I still feel like there's a little more they can do for it. Maybe in a wet year it'll come into its own. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
