2025 Headliners

[CaledonianGonzo]

It happening one year is fine, but if folk are consistently jacking it in early cos of a weak line-up it's not going to be sustainable for repeat business.

Loads of folks leaving on Sunday is great, makes more room. Generally find Sunday the best day. 
 

I always battle on till the end and never leave until Tuesday at the earliest, think it may have been Saturday this year 

 

It turns into a bit of a depressing place around Monday lunchtime.  After sleeping, I can't wait to get out of there to be honest.

I was working post festival this year, taking down tipis. 
 

The reason I never normally leave till Tuesday is that I’m not safe to drive. Tried leaving on the Monday once, had to pull into a lay-by and sleep

Any reason in particular that we wouldn't be speculating that Noah Kahan could be headlining?

The Park?

Disturbia is Rhianna’s 19th most played song but she hasn’t played it since 2012.

Criminal.

Rodrigo on the lock for Friday is decent news though. I can get behind that.

Probably because he's still only a one-album fella here. Wouldn't be the first time we've punted fresh, but there's usually a homegrown slant. 

 

(Aware he has three records, but only one has been a hit.)

 

Would consider him a credible sub shout, but if he's going anywhere, it'll be R+L or BST, surely.

It might be more convenient for those still on site, but it’s not a great look for the festival when half the punters f**k off a day early; Emily must have been concerned about that

Firmly concur. Felt like a damp ending with SZA being mostly occupied by floating Tesco bags for life.

Yip. And / or TRNSMT maybe.

When you consider it alongside last year it couldn't be more different - night and day - back then, the pathways were still crammed at midnight with people making their exodus after Elton.
