Pub Goers - Festival - Sign of the Times (near Ware)

Dear Pub Goers, We're off to a festival! It's not too far, just near Ware - Fri 20th - Sun 22nd June

Sign of the Times festival is Three packed days of rock, indie, pop, punk, britpop, ska, mod, alternative, and much, more, is heading to Sign of the Times Festival for a fifth year. With a host of brilliant bands and legendary artists, across the huge Main Outdoor Stage and Big Top Stage.

With two big stages of fantastic live music, plus lots of licensed bars, with a wide choice, loads of food stalls, with cuisine from across the globe and stalls and attractions, there’s something for everyone – campers and day visitors.

We went the last two years and we were impressed enough that we bought tickets for this year without even seeing the line up. So, come and join us!

The wonderful Caroline has even put together a Spiotify playlist of teh bands playing: https://open.spotify.com/playlist/7meMRJreVCav942DmJvvVu?si=_j3_5j8fQeGXFJvCO2iDIg

You can also get there from 5pm till 8pm on Thursday to set up & camp if you want (no music though)

Myself & Caroline will be camping the whole time (weather notwithstanding)

These details to be confirmed: Currently, myself & Caroline plan to get to the site on Thursday night or earlyish Friday morning.

Meet up plans:

Once in the festival we will get our bearings and find a spot to meet. I'll also pick a couple of times that will be 'meeting times'. Only at those times will I guarantee to be there and only for 10-15 mins.

Also, for each stage we'll probably have somewhere we are likely to hang out (unless I rush to the front :) )

Also, I will also try to use the WhatsApp group meet people. Note that previous fest experience shows this to be very hit & miss (messages delayed by hour+)

Apart from that, people (including me) will be doing whatever suits them (e.g. to go forward or wander off elsewhere).

Myself and Caroline will be making our own way there. Everyone else needs to do the same. I suggest people use the chat for this event to try and schedule common lifts, etc if you want to.

I will set up a WhatsApp group. If you want to be on that group, you need to direct message me your phone number (remember that everyone in that group will see your number too).
