Hi everyone I was wondering if there’s anything like a coop or pop up festival shop on site to buy food to cook with etc

So this is a very very weak evidence. But asked Halogenix on his Ama the other day if he was playing Boomtown. The guy was great and answered pretty much everything.

EXCEPT the Boomtown question! So Halgenix 2024?

First time ever going boomtown. I know it’s cashless and you have to use your wristbands to pay for things. Can I preload this before over the next couple months? And how can I do this? 1 x payment left on pre payment plan, do I have to have paid this in full first?

Thanks in advance!

Turning 18 in a few weeks so wanna book a festival, is boomtown safe enough to go alone?

BUZZING. See ya there seshers!

Hi guys, this is my first year at Boomtown and me and my other mate have purchased the pre- pitched tent. Is it worth it ? Is it further to all the stages and singled out from the other camps? Any advice would be appreciated 😊😊

Chase and status have just announced (i think) this show happening at the same time as boomtown. Sure this means at least some of these artist will also be popping up at Boomtown on other days?

Hello guys!

I just secured my ticket to boomtown (so freaking exited!) So the thing is I'm flying in from Denmark to Southampton airport on Thursday, taking a train to Winchester station and getting the shuttle bus from Winchester station to the festival and leaving again Monday afternoon, in that case I cant really have anything with with in terms of food/drinks. So here's my question

Is there a supermarket/store where I can buy supplies/food/drinks near Southampton airport/Winchester train station? I will need snacks/sunscreen/beers, maybe some other things i dont know yet

Cheers and see yall at boomtown!

So my friend who goes told me that there's like a jam that happens at night after the acts are done is this a jam with festival goers or the performers and if so am I able to bring my drum along to the festival? Do people steal instruments etc is there somewhere I could put it? It's quite a large drum so not sure it would fit in a regular locker.

Just wondering if the payment plan is a credit agreement?

Do you guys think he might be a closing set?

I have done many festivals in the past, but I haven’t been to one since Bestival 2017 and this is my first Boomtown! It’s been on my bucket list for years!

We are travelling by coach and staying in camp orchid! I’m planning on going all out this year! I usually do festivals on a whim and rarely even buy a ticket in advance, let alone go prepared! 🤣🤣🤣

I am prepping with quality lightweight camping gear and going to take in alcohol, food and goodies 😘 along with some killer festival outfits! To say I’m excited is an understatement!

I will however be treating myself to some good food from the vendors once a day, coffee, soft drinks and alcoholic drinks in the venue!

My questions to any boomtown veterans out there -

1. What kind of budget do you think I would need, baring in mind the above? I will have some food such as snacks, instant mash, noodles etc and of course alcohol and other drinks, but don’t want to restricted in buying what I want to if I want. Maybe even a souvenir or 2. I was thinking of taking about 1k.

2. Can you take camping stoves and gas bottles in? My stove is a tiny hiking one, but it’s the gas I’m more concerned about.

3. If I wanted to buy herb 🌿 once in there, how easy is it to? Always bought my own in the past, but a little concerned about the stink!

4. How easy is it to sneak things in? Is the security really as tight as some rumours say? I’ve been to a lot of big festivals and it’s never as bad as it’s made out to be usually.

5. Any tips or hacks to get stuff in?

6. Any tips of gear of things I will need to bring?

7. Any one done camp orchid before? Is it worth the money? Are the showers hot? How close to the action is the campsite?

Thanks in advance for any advice! I’m majorly excited for this festival! I hope it meets up to all the hype!

Lots of love ❤️

Dubtendo for me and my pals for the last few years has been the highlight off boomtown but I’ve heard from several acts that it’s been scrapped for 2024. What do we think and has anyone else heard anything?

I know Fatboy slim and the prodigy were set to headline last year but didn’t end up performing (I could be wrong). Any chance he will be there this year?

i cannot go to boomtown this year due to a personal situation that has arisen.

am i likely to get a refund on my purchase / how do i go about it??

i can’t find anything on who to talk to.

thanks

Just found out I have to work Wednesday and Thursday 😭 absolutely gutted, will have mates to pitch my tent for me when they get there Wednesday but how much actually goes on Wednesday and Thursday?

Anyone know if skylark is going to restock its tepees? Didn’t realise they were running so low and I’ve missed out

Just noticed skylark is nearly all sold out ,,, i have a crew ticket and cant purchase untill they sell skylark seperate without purchasing a ticket ,,, does anyone no if skylark will have a resale ?

Basically I wanna get a camp orchid wristband so I can have a shower and use the nice bogs and that but I wanna camp with my pals in the general camping bit - is that a thing people do? If I get the CO wristband do I have to pitch up in that campsite?

Given that Nubiyan Twist and Fat Freddy’s Drop are confirmed and its looking like David Rodigan and Gentleman's Dub Club are showing up... It could be possible we will see The Herbaliser too. They're all appearing together over the summer?

Hi guys,

I am thinking of camping in skylark this year but my friends aren't particularly organised in regards to sorting this. I'm wondering if it is possible for me to purchase one ticket, plus one skylark pass and the tee pee, and then whoever is coming to purchase their own ticket and skylark wristband at a later date, is this possible?

Thanks in advance!
