    Is there an App for timetable/scheduling purposes?

    I'd say they suffer massively, rarely a queue for pints during the day in B&S!

    I wouldn't buy drink in the arena if they forced me. I'm happy to do it at B+S, as they're sound with the two options.

    If it wasn't free flow, i'd just end up getting more drunk at the campsite to keep me going and that isn't ideal either.

    I remember Life Fest wasn't free flow and I just ended up filling a 7up bottle with spirits and mixer, then lobbed it high and far over the fence to an area where nobody was.

    Walked straight through then to find my bounty.

    The feeling of sticking it to the man did more for my mood than the drink ever could.

    Dont think theres app this year, I've been an absolute geek and thrown what I want to see in an excel sheet... I may have even used colours and bold lettering in certain areas.

    Twitching here in work with excitement.. think I'll spend the day just staring at the map and timetables to see have I somehow missed something when I know I haven't.

    Got two of those flimsy collapsable pouch bottles last night in Dealz if anyone was looking for them. Been carrying cans along with pre-mixed gin and juice in to festivals for years up until last year and now doing what Ethereal Cereal mentioned, bring the gin and go to a lovely ice cream man/lady for a nice cold can/bottle of fanta to mix. And Orchard Thieves for breakfast.

    I've never been to a free flow festival, looking forward to the ease!

    A bit freaked mine/our names aren't on the ticket, but I doubt they'll actually be checking. The guy I bought them from said not once in 5 years was he asked.

    I drank less at B&S than EP, down purely to the free-flow system. I bring a few cans with me into the arena, drink when I want and enjoy the music all day without feeling the need to tank up in the campsite, miss a lot of acts and hit the arena half cut.

    On Sunday even though I have cans left I'll buy some beer at the bars, sick of warm beer by then.

    Snap!

    App would have been handy all the same!

    Clashfinder is probably the best you'll get. Worked a charm for EP last year.

    For anyone bringing kids, here's the Soul Kids timetable.

    Slightly bizarre that it doesn't seem to have been published anywhere that I could find ... I got it from them through FB Messenger

    Not sure they've ever published the timetable for that ahead of time!

    Thanks for all the recommendations on here over the past few weeks.

    Have the B&S Spotify playlist on as I pack :)

    The excitement of it all.

    Have really been getting into Pillow Queens recently. Also Primary Colours and True Tides are sounding very fresh too.
    All on the Woodlands stage.

    Folks - Does anyone know about bringing children with them on a Sunday ticket?

    My ticket says (in the small print) that "Up to 2 children under 12 can be admitted free of charge as long as they were registered at the point of purchase".

    There was no option to register children when I was buying the Sunday ticket through the web portal???
