Ah, the next wave of festival FOMO is about to hit you, because the Splendour In The Grass set times are here and ready for you to pour over, map out your days, and squabble with your mates over when’s gunna be the best times to scoot to the bar, the food trucks, and the toot.
So get your pocket pals/diaries/phones/personal assistants ready, cos here they are.
Now before you sound off about what’s clashing and who’s on when and where, you gotta know where you need to go – and how much of a sprint it’s gunna be to get from the Mix Up Stage when you’re done with Girl Talk to catch the start of Kendrick Lamar over in the Amphitheatre.
Here’s the official map, so get your bearings, note down where all the loos are, and figure out your group’s #1 meeting spot (believe me, this is important. Meet you at the Snoop Doggs.).
If you don’t wanna print these out – don’t do that, we wanna save the trees thanks – you can get all this info on the official Splendour app, on both iOS and Android.
This year the festival is making a strong effort to be a bit more ~environmentally conscious~ so punters are encouraged to bring their own refillable water bottles (there will be heaps of water stations at the festival), providing heaps of specific rubbish bins so you can sort out your trash.
Splendour are also really pushing the idea of leaving no trace at the campground – encouraging y’all to take your campsites home with you or dropping off unwanted tents, sleeping bags, mattresses, chairs with your Camp Marshal to be picked up by Social Futures, who will give gear that’s in good nick to disadvantaged people in the wider community who are sleeping rough or need some extra warmth and comfort. Be a good egg, take care of each other.
So that’s just about it! The whole fest is creeping up quickly, so get yourselves sorted and we’ll bloody see ya there.
