Listening Section 2: Matching & Map/Plan Labelling: Question 4

Transcript-based practice (no audio).

Coordinator: Right, thanks for coming to this last briefing before the gates open. I know it's early, but I'd rather go through this now than have thirty of you radioing me the same questions at once this afternoon. A few notes on the site before you head to your posts.

First, just so you're aware, the Artists' Lawn behind the production office is reserved for performers and crew only after six o'clock each evening, so if any punters wander back there looking for a shortcut, please redirect them, that area isn't on the public map after that time.

Now, the Orchard Stage. That's our headline stage, and once it's full, security will be running a strict one-in-one-out policy, so don't let anyone tell you they can just squeeze past; one person leaves, one person comes in, no exceptions, however famous their friend is on the guest list.

The Walled Garden Stage has actually changed hands this year. It used to be run by the festival directly, but it's under new management from an outside promoter, and because of that it's also moved to a completely different corner of the site, over by the old orchard wall rather than its usual spot near the main gate, so do double check with people if they're looking for it, since plenty of returning visitors will still expect it in the old location.

Family Field is straightforward, but remember it closes earlier than everywhere else. Last entry and last exit is ten o'clock, a full two hours before the rest of the site, because it's aimed at people with younger children.

The Late-Night Barn, on the other hand, is the opposite end of things. That area requires a wristband upgrade to get in, on top of the normal festival ticket, so if someone's only wearing a standard wristband, they simply can't enter, however much they argue.

Wellbeing Tent is worth remembering for a different reason: once it gets dark, it's actually the only fully accessible area on site for wheelchair users, because it's the only zone with the temporary pathway lighting installed so far. Everywhere else gets genuinely difficult to navigate after sunset.

And finally, Riverside Bar has gone cashless this year, card or app payments only, so please don't waste time directing anyone there who's only carrying cash.

Right, radios on, and good luck out there.
