    Shuttle bus was used for the overflow campervans and some camping last year. They underestimated how much space was required for the campervans. They closed the campervan field on Friday afternoon and diverted everyone to a field with no facilities. Bit of a balls but turned out to be a great festival...apart from the persistent rain!

    Thanks for info.

    So it must be the same campsite I was in (5mins walk away). Past a pub on the corner if I remember rightly??

    Think we'd manage with a shuttle bus to and from car park.

    It's up on The Cult website too. It's part of their 40th anniversary tour.

    Nice. I thought the missing band was Travis based on earlier rumours. Would take The Cult instead definitely. Looking forward.
