    The lineups have really been weak the last few years (still a great festival though), so not going to get up any kind of hope or expectation before tonight. I'd say there have only been around 4 acts I have recognised at the time for the last 3 years going by the posters above. I saw them reply to a comment on facebook a few weeks ago saying they have never been about the big names, which is true, but wouldn't fill you with confidence ahead of the announcement..

    It was only really 2012-2014 that had strong lineups, every other year has been fine to relatively weak.

    Any ideas how to access the "listening party"? I can't see any link to it on twitter or on their website. I also realise I'm a sucker for the marketing to buy into it, but sure what can you do?

    It's their rather grandiose way of saying they will broadcast the lineup in audio rather than just give us a lineup poster like other festivals. Similar to the EP launch party I assume!

    You really have to wonder the point in having a listening party when nobody can listen to you!

    Edit: looks like a live feed on their instagram page maybe?

    Why would they tell us that they would announce at 7, only to tell us that they are having an exclusive party (i.e. we are not invited) at 7pm, and that when they've had their fun we will be privileged enough to see them after.

    Anyone around the Big Romance to press their noses up against the glass?

    I wonder who got invited to the exclusive listening party, probably a load of bloggers and "influencers" who don't give a crap about music

    I can't seem to find it on their page. I don't have an instagram account so maybe I can't view it.

    Really emphasizing that the festival isn't just about the music here :pac: The first 30 mins have been spent talking about the ethos of the festival.

    You don't need an instagram account to view instagram. You do need one to look at stories. What's the harm in signing up for that reason?
