New Arcadia 2024 lineup

Dragon fly

Bio-mechanical dragonfly sounds cool!  Another chance to see Barry Can’t Swim - may avoid Park crowd then 

[foolee]

Ooo Barry Can’t Swim. That’s good to know. Have 3 chances to see him in a month so should be able to catch him at least once hopefully.

Sounds good. New opening show each night also

Anyone seen any images of the dragonfly yet?

[4AssedMonkey]

Excellent.  Glad the Dragonfly is ready!

 

3 DJ's there I may actually make the effort for too.  Nice.

[tickleyt]

is that...it? is there usually more or has the new stage meant decreased act numbers?

[glimmers_of_hope]

looks like a top lineup from my perspective.

FBS, Barry can't swim, Hot Chip (DJ set),Joy anonomous.

 

Would be interested in whether Barry Can't Swim is live or DJ - I'm assuming DJ set.

usual amount

I wonder if the dragon fly will be like the spider where you can fully go under and around it or it might be more crowd facing... the head is only really at one end of it

DJ set - you can't do live sets in arcadia unless something changes (would also mean gaps needed between djs etc)

This is the only picture I've seen. It's a big chopper!

 

 

Edit: Same chopper shown in the instagram vid a couple of posts down:

Could be the first time for years and years that I actually spend some decent time at Arcadia.

 

[TiZuff]

eric pryds , joy anonymous b2b salute, barry cant swim, hot chip dj set, haai, 

Salute is not anywhere else on the lineup right now is he? surprised he isnt elsehwere (yet)

[Ell99]

Sounds intriguing. I'd be interested to see the scale of the dragonfly. I'm sure the chopper is big, but surely it wont be anywhere near the scale of the crane - hopefully it will at least be more expansive than the spider.

 

"at the heart of an evolved geometric space" - this sounds promising - hopefully it means you dont need to be right underneath the thing to have a good experience.

 

Arcadia hasn't interested me at all the past two festivals - but will make the effort to at least pass through this year!

 

Nice idea to have it open during the day for kids!

Cheers, that is what I thought.

 

So all the people who are saying that they might skip Barry can't swim at the Park to catch him at Arcadia it is going to be 2 different things - Live set at the park playing his own stuff vs DJ set at Arcadia.

Intriguing!

Does Joy (Anonymous) mean you know who will be there as well?

Carl Cox won't fit in that 

 

maybe why he's not playing this year

[joeruss]

Prydz, absolutely buzzing with that! 😃

Having seen Barry can't swim DJ set at last years Glastonbury he seems to drop most his bangers in his dj set.

is the chopper definitely being used? doesn't necessarily need to be for the dragonfly
