Greenbelt

Licensed

We've got a licence!

It's another one of those key milestones that we need to pass for the festival to happen. I'm not directly involved in the licensing process, so I got to hear the news third hand.

This year we're increasing the site capacity once again (to 17,500). This has knock-on effects in the amount of camping we need to provide, the size and layout of the venues, the number of stewards we need... the list goes on. Getting to the licence hearing represents a huge amount of work and I'm always grateful to those whose efforts get us past it.

In other Greenbelt news, the poster from the latest publicity now decorates my desk at work. It's a good design. One I'll soon be asked questions about, I suspect.
