We had our
Info Crew Training on Sunday (22/5)
This was in Zoom form, and I have to say that on-line training (for our first ever time!) turned out to be
far more boring than the trad face-to-face training we'd been used to ahead of previous Glastonburies!
ETA : They banged on about Covid to an over-lengthy extent IMO (and esppecially in festivaldeb's O!
), which given that Covid-restrictions will actually be quite limited at Glastonbury 2022 (to my surpise!), did become somewhat tedious!
Otherwise, it seems that remarkably little has changed, site-lay-out-wise and generally
Biggest two :
1. For
Arcadia, The Spider! will be back! -- apparantly the logistics, etc., of
bringing 2019's Crane back were too troublesome, but we weren't told any other details
2. BBC Introducing will not be in Silver Hayes any more -- they've moved it to a stretch not far below Left Field, heading down towards Pyramid/Cider Bus area.
Struggling to think of any more significant (or any!) changes around the public areas, although I'm sure some Market details, etc, will have altered.
For 'Orange Camping' (Dairy Ground), (staff/crew/volunteers), some Stewarding crews have been moved away from there to outside the Fence.
We (info Crew) have been allocated a slightly larger crew-camping area, right at the top of Orange Camping, very near to Vehicle Gate 4 and to Pedestrian Gate D ( I think that's right! ). We're not sharing with our pals in the Property Lock-Up crew any more, though .....
If I remember anything else, I'll post that soon, but for now, just assume that
Glastonbury 2022 will be near-identical infrastructurally, to Glastonbury 2019!
The weather will surely be
as good as well
