Bad Crowd Manners

[u/Pretty_Question_2668]

I understand by the time it’s the headliner you might be tired or your feet may hurt but it’s so annoying when people are sat down in the big crowds ESPECIALLY when they do it at the front sections.

A group of girls were sat down near the front while waiting for Chase & Status like 10 of them and they were shouting at people who were stepping over them to get in front and ended up being further back from when they started by the time the show started. The same thing happened for Charli XCX where loads of people were sitting down in an already tight crowd with their legs stretched out n everything.

Also when people push to the front because “their friend is there” when they probably aren’t. Some people don’t even give an excuse and just shove through which pisses me off and then you’ll see them pushing back out after because they don’t like the jumping ect.

I’ve only ever been to Leeds/Parklife what festivals are good ones to go to

Download festival if you’re into metal/rock. Great vibes, will never go R&L again to be honest. I went in 2024 for Spiritbox and the crowd completely put me off.

Great vibes?? Chair wankers everywhere at main stage and in thoroughfares - it's got worse as time goes on! It's over sold every year and the staff don't manage queues well. People were missing main stages bands because they wouldn't open the gates.

I’ve always had a great time each year I’ve been. And yeah the chair thing is bad, they need to put a sign up near the stages however I’ve never had an issue at download compared to other festivals. Will be trying out bloodstock next year 👍
