Social meet up in the village at Download Festival.

Food, drinks and a good laugh.

Looking to meet around 7pm on the Wednesday evening to give everyone chance to pitch up and settle in.

Let’s kick off the weekend in the right way!

More details once the map has been released and we know where everything is

Post below if you are interested in joining in and keep up to date.

Also a good platform to form some relationships etc before the time to make things a little less daunting

Looks like they’re doing some alterations to the map as they’ve taken it off line, what we do know is the village is now called District X

Some people have been saying it’s abit of a walk from their camp, I thinks that’s goi g to be the case for everyone, the arena isn’t open on the Wednesday so at the moment this is the next best thing.

I will go through the map again when they put it back out and see if there might be something a little more central. Just thinking at least we know there’s a bar in the village (district)

Looks like the Doghouse is the same location as last year, Sidesplitter stage in the woods by where the standard showers are/were last year, with District X between them (probably rides and stalls.

I’d suggest meeting at somewhere easily found, such as the information point near District X and Sidesplitter, then we can head to the bar or food area

So there has been some great interest in this, so we are going to go for 7pm by the side splitter stage and information kiosk. Group up there and then about 7:15 head through district x towards the dog house stage and the bar. Then what happens with the rest of the night is anyone’s guess!

Given the amount of people delayed, how about another one at 10pm?

Could meet behind the green bus at the top end of the village near the doghouse?

Or are people already coming over?
