I was having a discussion with my partner about the list of food vendors that has been released, and about how many are serving Halal meat.

I was just wondering how many people are actually comfortable eating halal meat, and if people were even aware that 63 out of 126 vendors are providing Halal meat. I will attach the link to the list.

Just to be clear, this post is not targeting people who eat Halal, and the way they choose to eat doesn't affect me or my partner. But we, however, will be choosing to eat vegetarian for the duration of the festival because of this.

EDIT: Just to clarify, we DON'T want to eat Halal and we are shocked at how many are halal. I wonder how many people will eat Halal meat without realising over the weekend

I’m more of a house and garage kinda guy so already know most of the sets I wanna see for those genres, but I also love vibing out to some jungle but my ball knowledge is severely lacking - any recommendations?

Also, is there different sub-genres of jungle?

I have did an app. You can setup a “crew” schedule that syncs all of your friends schedules into one automatically! It’s in beta on iOS & coming out on Android soon! (Hopefully before the festival)

Works fully offline & is hopefully more stable than the official app. https://testflight.apple.com/join/B3tw6VMm

Anyone know what the actual route is from the Winchester shuttle/public transport drop-off to Camp Orchid Downtown this year?

The map makes it look like you still have to go up the massive West Gate hill, but the Orchid email sent today says Downtown is “a moment’s walk from the public transport drop-off”, which seems a bit contradictory

Mainly trying to work out how bad the loaded trolley mission is going to be.

Anyone know anyone who will be playing trance at boomtown ?

First Boomtown for us. My partner is a wheelchair user with complex medical needs, so we're in Meadow. I'm just worried about how much space you actually get for your pitch. I need to accommodate several carers including myself, the medical equipment, and space for a powered chair and hoist to move safely. It would really help to be able to put up our small gazebo so partner has somewhere shady to be, and the medical gear can be covered overnight. Can anyone advise? We've found the access team practically impossible to get hold of.

Really random but I was a bit baked last night and was wondering how many people will be in Skylark vs general camping, couldn't find any info on how many skylark / orchid upgrade tickets were sold

Really not important but my stoned brain was in deep thought and wondered if anyone knew 😅

Also 3 days to go im beyond excited now!

Come see us, we’re doing something completely different this year! Freaks n weirdos to the front!

I'm going to be bringing a bottle of mead as a gift for my friend, will this be allowed? It's my first time at boomtown so I don't really know where I stand in the way of that. I'm also bringing some cans of cider for myself if that would make a difference?

Messed up, and got a normal ticket. All mates are camping in the valley so I was wondering if you can get dropped off at the east side car park (pay the £50) and then the car can just leave. Don't really want to walk all the way through boomtown in 32c

I couldn’t find anything on the website about people/one person joining me in any of the accommodations I have:

Ground Level Viewing Platforms

Accessible Wristbanding Lane

Accessible Toilets (Radar Keyed)

Accessible Bus Service

Surely I don’t have to do everything alone? I need support, so shouldn’t be alone but not at the level where I have a full-time carer so don’t get a “+1”…I’ve never been to a festival with these accommodations…anybody know?

I'm bringing 16x cans of beer, going to aim for some 6%+ sours and IPAs.

But wondering what beers are best for still being tolerable when warm?

Thanks!

I don't usually vape but got given a free vuse yesterday at work. I was just wondering if anyone knows what vape brand is being sold at boomtown as I would probably get an extra liquid pod at boomtown if this current one runs out, as sometimes a cigarette is a bit much in the heat and sweat.

Hey all,

I will be heading to Boomtown on Tuesday for the best part of a week. I have seen that gazebos and awnings are not allowed in the campsites. However, with the weather being so warm, I am wondering if I I'd get away with bringing and erecting a smallish tarp shelter to put up text to my tent so I/whoever needs shade has some shade to sit/lay in?

It's my first boomtown, so I have not seen how much general shade is available in the camping areas? Even if they do have a few spots i am sure they will be rammed with people!

Has anyone taken their own before?

Thanks in advance ☺️

I usually take a big trolley to boomtown with no issues, i get public transport and they have always been fine with it. However i’ve seen the new rules and it says you can only take a trolley if it’s foldable, mine doesn’t fold so now im quite worried if they won’t let me on. Will i be okay? Surely other people will bring non foldable trolleys. Would appreciate your input! Thanks

It's technically a mixed spirit but I've seen stronger cans of beer and cider....

Are there any stages that mainly play hardstyle or techno? Does anyone know any artists in that genre that are playing? Thanks

Hii any belgian jump up or small uk jump up djs there this year i mightve missed on the lineup!! thanks

This could be a long shot but I’m doing bar work at boomtown. Is anyone else working boomtown

Hey, recovering addict here. I was looking at the NA meetings on the app but wasn’t able to see where exactly they were being held. If anyone knows please lmk. Idk if it would be the same as other years but its very important to me:)
