Changes for 2015
There are a few changes for 2015, Details are below.
Main Stage
Following extensive feedback from 2013 (Over 600 messages) We took your advice and made the decision to scale the event back a little bit for 2015. In order to make this change, we've decided to take the "main stage" off the plan for this year.
The feedback we got said that it was a little too large and dominating, and that the festival needed more of a community feel about it. Along with this, the site needed a re-design to the overall layout and in order to effect this change, we need to make more room. It makes sense to do this in one manoeuvre this year. There will be no less music or performance. We plan to increase the other stages output by roughly the same amount of time that is being removed from the main stage.
Dance Tent
This year also sees a change to the dance tent. We plan to replace the single large tent with a similarly sized area consisting of a few smaller venues, with more choice of music in each offering more variety.
The Bar Stage and Drystone Stage remain as-is, although these may be re-located to suit.
Camping
The land owner has asked that there are no camp-fires in 2015. The land suffered significant damage in 2013 so we plan to make a communal camp-fire in each of the camp sites instead.
The camp-sites will revert to their original names too, Noisy, Family and Quiet camping will return (As that's what most people called them anyway) But with a slight change, We're swapping about Noisy and Family camping. - This is to coincide with the re-location of the dance area and subsequent noise.
Thursday Camping is still available, but the rather confusing Thursday vehicle supplement has been replaced with smaller per-adult supplement. This is to cover the cost of the overheads for us for an additional day such as insurance, toilets security, and power.
