Re: New Venue for Bloc 2012...

Yeah I thought of the Uni thing too, a campus Uni like Loughborough or something.

But don't reckon it would work, single rooms, not much in the way of communal areas, and don't think they would have anywhere for the stages.

I'm still stumped, Bloc, any news?

Re: New Venue for Bloc 2012...



This what I planned to post at this time of year, but I suppose as we don't know when it's gonna be anymore it doesn't really work :(

Here's hoping for news soon and that Bloc isn't much later than March

Re: New Venue for Bloc 2012...

Also seen this in line up info

Floating Points / Kyle Hall / SDC / Roska / Lone

Is stuff starting to come out, or is this old info? Didn't all these play this year?

Re: New Venue for Bloc 2012...

Just seen that efestivals has the dates down as June 1st to 3rd 2012 (although it does say TBC)

Also says prices from £150pp but that could be old info

No hint on venue though

Re: New Venue for Bloc 2012...

Also the fact that Bloc wrote this: As a result, it is no longer possible for the good people at Butlinʼs to accommodate us all, so Bloc is bringing forward plans for expansion into new, brighter territory. Means to me it definitely wont be happening at any Butlins, but I could be wrong. Ho hum, on ...

Re: New Venue for Bloc 2012...

I am thinking exactly the same. Seriously what kind of place has the infrastructure set up to handle an indoor festival like this. If it's not going to be Butlins, I'm really struggling. On the Centre Parcs thing, yes it would be great but I don't know anything about the main areas, could you get 4i...

Re: New Venue for Bloc 2012...

WTF? Later in the year! How late? Not liking having to wait even longer!!!!!! Second the no camping, this is supposed to be middle class raving, also no Bloc TV would be a huge fail. Any way you could give us geographic area (north, south, etc...) would be nice to not to have to drive for a million ...

Brackout is proper amazing, definitely the best way to kick off an awesome festival.

Bloc 2012

Just want to check, is there any way that a deposit can be left for booking Bloc 2012? I'm sure I read this somewhere in the guide but can't see any way of doing this online. Can't quite muster up the full amount yet! (this is obviously once we get a nod that the security is not gonna be populated w...

Re: What are the ovens in the chalet like?

Thanks for the top tip regarding the Farm Shop. I'm also one of those people who don't feel that eating is cheating and like to take full advantage of chalet facilities including the oven! We had a roast on the Friday complete with home made crumble and custard. One year all the 'foodies' should ge...
