Posted on the other thread,but will here as well as that is close to limit.

My first in many years. L's first ever. Also going with another friend

Looking forward to 4 great days - plenty of bands we've not seen before, with excitement building as June approaches ??

Would be good to bump into some fellow fabsters - difficult to see how with so many bands to move around to see !!! Barely time to eat, drink & pee.

Sure contact will be made nearer the time - won't be long ?

From what I understand, there will be no mixing between camping areas, so socialising will be in the Village or Arena only, and people are going to want to see bands on Thursday

"How do you apply to be staff at these types of events?

If you're happy to be a volunteer, Oxfam still needs people for Download. Volunteers have to be on site the day before the festival officially starts so for Download, you will need to be there from Wednesday, 7 June to Monday, 12 June. "

Depends who your volunteering with and what your shifts are. I'm rocking up on the Tuesday, the same as many volunteers

"So…

Social meet, in the Village, say 7pm on the Wednesday?… would that work for people?

Obviously once we have more idea about the map etc. we can add or modify accordingly "

We could possibly join

Seems to be a few gatherings going on. Probably all around the village so it'll be like a soiree I'll mooch from one to the other

Are you happy to coordinate?

I was going to put it on the Meet requests forum, so there is more visibility about those interested

We're quiet camping, so a bit of a walk, but are you allowed to enter other camping areas?

The word coming from the organisers is still a no on this.

Quiet myself too, looks like a walk through the woods to get to the village

Last year you couldn’t get into the quiet, eco or specific campsites without the right wristband.

Not sure about general campsite access with a quiet wristband this year due to it being sold out.

I did see a post somewhere about the rules being that you’re allowed in the campsite your wristband states and that’s it, can’t find it now though

So from what I know so far, any camper can enter general camping camp sites, so eco, quiet, accessible, rip etc can enter the coloured sites but general campers cannot enter special sites.

Apparently you can enter rip camping however you are required to pay some kind of deposit.

This is all I know so far

Official word is, only allowed in the campsite you have a ticket for… no general in Eco, Quiet etc.. AND vice versa
