One of the biggest challenges that any promoter faces working in an urban park is getting the sound levels from the stages right. Every local authority has rules about the amount of noise you can make to ensure that people living nearby aren't unnecessarily disturbed. We've been working with the local authority since November last year and have employed a specialist noise consultancy, Vanguardia, to redesign the site and calculate what levels we need to put on a great show. Vanguardia have worked across live music from Wembley Stadium gigs to the Download festival and are very well regarded within the business. We are confident that with the conditions we have negotiated for our entertainment license and the day to day management from Vanguardia, we will achieve a significant volume increase throughout the site to complement the exciting line up we have secured this year.
Production
This year we have brought in specialist events agency Ear To The Ground to ensure this years exciting line up is matched with full event management. Ear To The Ground has a wealth of experience in running a variety of events in England and was recently responsible for launching this year's Liverpool European Capital of Culture.
Toilets
Using Ear To The Ground's experience of providing for large events, we're going to make sure that the number of toilets is more than adequate to service the site this year and this provision will be significantly above the recommended level. These will include both normal portaloos and also urinals which can reduce queues substantially.
Ticketing/Guest List
There will be a new ticketing and guest list system implemented on arrival.
Stages/Running Times
All stages will show running times which will also be posted on this website prior to the event, and printed in a free festival program that will be given out on arrival.
