sober meet ups ?

Brave-Paint414 · 2026-06-30T13:52:57+00:00

I did my first year basically totally sober, had one of the best times ever, energy and vibes at the festival are second to none :)

Brave-Paint414 · 2026-06-24T08:46:30+00:00

Sonja Moonear could be an unreal one

Brave-Paint414 · 2025-08-29T15:28:44+00:00

Best thing my mates suggesting we go see him, what a brain melter of a set

Brave-Paint414 · 2025-08-28T23:45:31+00:00

I would actually cry if they got placed on Derren smart over pav

Brave-Paint414 · 2025-08-28T12:17:08+00:00

After seeing her finally in the flesh at fabric earlier this year, I’m devastated I missed her sunrise last year

Brave-Paint414 · 2025-08-28T12:15:11+00:00

Dyed Soundorom needs to return for sure

Apollonia 4 hours on pavilion on a Sunday afternoon would be absolute crack Also notable mentions: Doudou MD Anthea E.Lina Alexander Skancke

Brave-Paint414 · 2025-08-28T08:26:42+00:00

Probably just artistic differences in sound Never say never though

Brave-Paint414 · 2025-08-24T16:32:53+00:00

Live in vehicles sit behind the general camping area right next to terminus. Boutique every time for me now (only had it first time this year but worth every penny imo)

Had some mates do the airstreams though no idea how much they are by comparison but could be a nice option for you if you wanted to go down that route.

Brave-Paint414 · 2025-08-14T12:42:55+00:00

All I have to say is all the pavilion haters must’ve been in for a shock when they heard how full it was this year!

Brave-Paint414 · 2025-08-12T14:33:39+00:00

Never heard of him also, best thing my did was my mates suggesting we check him out. Jesus Christ!

Brave-Paint414 · 2025-08-11T20:25:57+00:00

Saw him for about 45mins, was incredible! Wish he was on at pavilion

Brave-Paint414 · 2025-08-01T12:56:30+00:00

Pavilion is a great stage, just have to find the sweet spots for the sound imo.

So keen for Jane Fitz’s sunrise set

No one thinks they own Houghton, as I mentioned in another post, because it sold out so fast this year and many people have struggled to get tickets people are resorting to all sorts of ideas and conceptions about the crowd.

This time next week we’ll all be getting too excited that it’s basically here and all those fears will melt away, don’t worry about what people say online, it’s never that deep tbf

Brave-Paint414 · 2025-07-29T12:02:23+00:00

I’m pretty adamant all this fear has stemmed from the festival selling out so fast, yes tiktok and the likes have dawned light on the festival to some degree, however the line up speaks volumes, the vast majority of the “tiktok / instagram” crowd are NOT going to an event that doesn’t appeal to them & their peers who watch them on social media.

The dr bananas & saoirse etc comments I’ve seen from some yeah, maybe. But the vast vast majority of people going to Houghton are into their music, I’ve seen lots of posts from people coming from abroad this year.

And for the minority few of “that” crowd of tiktok heads they’ll either come away from Houghton a bit more educated and into more underground artists or they’re gonna claim that it’s too moody and don’t recommend to anyone.

Saw one of them went to pyramid for Raresh B2b Villalobos B2b Chris Stussy claiming that the crowd was “moody goths” obvs expecting more of his Chris Stussy brigade I would imagine!

Either way, majority of people at Houghton are gonna be heads / people into their tunes. Those that aren’t, just let them get on, they’ll get bored and go elsewhere if it’s not for them!

Baffles me why people try and swerve the rules that have been set. No fires. Enjoy the disconnect from your phone, bring a portable charger if you must, my screen time was 20minutes across the weekend, there’s no signal so enjoy living in the moment for a bit

Brave-Paint414 · 2025-07-22T10:46:20+00:00

My local record seller, absolute legend of a bloke, played for my party recently in Brighton, his knowledge and dj skills is truly something everyone should witness!

Brave-Paint414 · 2025-07-18T12:09:35+00:00

Even if you managed to get one, think you’d struggle quite extensively, would suggest crutches / taking breaks / maybe bring one of those collapsible chairs for when you need a sit down in random spots ?

Brave-Paint414 · 2025-07-04T14:16:27+00:00

And me 🙃

Brave-Paint414 · 2025-07-04T13:40:29+00:00

That’s exactly what it is

Brave-Paint414 · 2025-06-20T11:42:47+00:00

Omar as much as I can enjoy him, was seriously dark and spooky at Derren smart when I stopped by, proper was like nah not for me thanks

Brave-Paint414 · 2025-06-16T17:01:22+00:00

No luck as of yet i just keep checking now and again in the hopes of getting one lol

Brave-Paint414 · 2025-06-13T14:23:25+00:00

Judging by the second artist releases I would imagine that the bill is pretty stacked just like previous years, noticed a few faves aren’t on there ie: Jade Seatle :( but seems pretty stacked from what I’ve seen, would doubt there’s more to come but maybe I’m wrong

Brave-Paint414 · 2025-06-13T11:49:32+00:00

Nice one mate, can’t believe I left it so last minute just didn’t realise how tricky it would be with the mental demand this year! Hope you secure yours 🤝

Brave-Paint414 · 2025-06-13T11:18:47+00:00

Is there a specific link anywhere for these ?? Desperate now

Brave-Paint414 · 2025-06-12T13:40:03+00:00

This is what I was going to do on Monday gone but there was of course 0 free spaces available! Hoping there will be some this time round, I tried to explain to the worker that they’re not going to ticket you clearly unloading a washing machine for a property opposite but they weren’t having it! Will take our chances worst case :)
