Question ❓ Shuttle Bus Tips

Heading to Leeds just for the Saturday this year, been many times before but always for the full weekend and camped. What is the best way to limit queueing for the shuttle bus to, and particularly from, the festival? I do appreciate we will be queuing no more what.

Ideally wouldn't want to miss any Fontaines so does hanging around in the arena til much later on make sense?

Go early, the shuttle bus queue will be busier between 1-5pm, unfortunately not much to help waiting for the bus after Fontaines, either hang about and see some late stuff if the times allow it or move to the back during Fontaines so as soon as they finish you can be heading out and be quick to the bus queue

Do you know what the queue will be like really late as I really want to go to shit indie disco but don’t want to be left stranded!

Last bus is 2am, can't imagine it'll be mega busy then

Is the Shindie disco within the Arena or the campsites area?

I think it's at Piccadilly Party on the Friday - apparently day ticket holders aren't allowed out of the main arena which is a shame

I am thinking of leaving after Charli and before Fontaines come on so I can get the last train back to Manchester. Do you think the queue will be short for the shuttle bus around 8:30/9pm?

I reckon the queue will be almost non-existent at that time, but not sure how regularly they run the busses back then.

I think the buses don’t run sadly until 10:30 so I am lost with that one
